TESTIMONIALS 



Joy Floral Co.: 



Gentlemen: We are much pleased with your new white Carnation. It 

 Is clean growing, makes very little grass, as practically every shoot runs 

 immediately to a bloom. The color could not be a purer white at any time 

 of the year. It is a non-burster, the calyx being long, the bud coming out 

 quite a distance from the calyx before opening. When allowed to develop, 

 the flower has a high center, the form being excellent. 



Tours very truly, PATTEN & CO. 



Joy Floral Co.: 



Gentlemen: It gives me great pleasure to recommend your white Car- 

 nation Joy to florists who want a good commercial white. As far as I know 

 there is no other white that Is just as good. I was a little skeptical at first, 

 but I am fully convinced, after seeing the variety growing at our place, that 

 it is even better than Matchless, and that it will hold its own for some time 

 to come. 



Tours truly, AUGUST F. POEHLMANN. 



Joy Floral Co.: 



Gentlemen: We want to report that In our location, where sunlight is 

 about as rare a bird as any place in this country, it is not only holding Its 

 own but proving to be a wonder. We consider it to be an excellent commer- 

 cial white Carnation. Yours truly.

HILL'S AMERICA RED COLUMBIA 



'best ever" we have the 



THE E. G. HILL CO. 

 (Roam Prmtnimr x Hoo»imr Btauty) 



Bud long and pointed; flower Immense; 

 strong: in texture, a good keeper. 



Foliage large, dark green; stems almost 

 thornless and strong. 



Resembles Columbia In Its extraordinary, 

 "'trong, quick growth and does not crimp the 

 outer petals under any growing conditions; 

 scores very high on form and size. 



The color Is a gorgeous rose-pink. 



Quite distinct; a fine addition to the "Big 

 Rose"' Class. 



Prices on the Above Three Varieties 



JOS. H. HILL CO. 

 Spmrt from Columbia 



Brilliant velvety crimson-scarlet, much the 

 tone of Hoosier Beauty, never blues. 



Not so full as the parent, but very lasting 

 and with June-rose fragrance. 



The foliage Is ample and beautiful. 



No forcing Rose makes so quick a come- 

 back as the Red Columbia, consequently 

 while it is not so full as the parent, its blK 

 crops of gorgeous red at Thanksgiving, again 

 at Christmas, then at Valentine'*. Day, and 

 on up to hot weather, make ft extremely 

 profitable. 



ANGELUS 



FRED LEMON 

 (Columbia x Opholia) 



White with cream tinted center. 



A big-, rounded Rose, like Premier In form 

 but with higher center; very lasting, and 

 fragrant. 



Foliage dark green, disease-resistant. 



A vigorous, upright grower and free In 

 bloom. 



Resembles Kaiserin Augusta, but Is quite 

 full, 40 to 45 petals, and, unlike Kaiserin, It 

 blooms freely in Wir.ter and is a good keeper. 



Was awarded Certificate of Merit of the 

 r'hicago Flower Growers' Association in 1921; 

 also Silver Medal of the New York Flower 

 Show, Spring of 1621.
