 Alio Silver Medal for the best 100 blooms

National Flower Show at Indianapolis, 



Indiana, Maroh 28. 1922. 



Grower's Description: "Betty Jane" Is 

 a seedling of White Wonder and Ward. 



Color: An ideal shade of Ward pinR. 

 The flowers are as round as a dial, 3^- 

 in. to 3% -In. diameter. Stem: Sturdy 

 and wiry, holding the flower upright at 

 all times. 



A good, vigorous grower in the field and 

 under glass; not subject to rot, and pro- 

 duces very few split calyxes. 



An early bloomer, starting right after 

 housing; free flowering and keeps on con- 

 tinuously throughout the season: produces 

 a good proportion of cuttings on the flow- 

 ering stem, which root easily. 



It is a most excellent keeper, which 

 also makes it a good shipper. 



Price, $12.50 per 100, $110.00 per 1000. 



NATALIE— Joy Floral Company

 dium to large, 3-ln. blooms in Novem- 

 ber; calyx. long, does not burst; petals, 

 broad: substance, firm; keeping qualities, 

 good; blooming qualities, free and early. 



Patten & Company, the well known 

 f amatlon specialists of Tewksbury. Massa- 

 chusetts, who have a few thousand Na- 

 talie on their place, write us as follows: 



"Natalie" has produced (32) thirty-two 

 blooms per square foot to date (April 

 26th), averaging 3 in. in size with a good 

 stem. This variety, which we have han- 

 illeil in a con.merclal way. lias averaged 

 Just under eight cents per bloom from 

 September I5th to date The greater part 

 of our production is sold through com- 

 mission men. the above average being our 

 net returns. Natalie la not an exhibition 

 variety, but strictly commercial. 



Priea^ $12.00 per 100, $100.00 per 1000. 



SURPRISE— 

 F. Dorner & Sons Co. 



In color a trifle darker and the 

 nearest approach to Laddie of any 

 Carnation we know. A well grown 

 flower of Surprise Is nearly equal 

 to Laddie and the combined size 

 and color. In addition to its pro- 

 ductiveness, will make it a close 

 rival to that favorite. 



Its poimlarity will be In — 



1st. The easy propagation, strong 

 growth, and shapely, upright plants. 



2nd. The color, wliich is a more 

 even shade of pink, and just a little 

 darker than Laddie. 



3rd. The very early and profuse 

 flowering .habit, equal to the best 

 of the standard varieties. 



4th. The large siie, good form 

 and commercial quality. 



5th. The opening of the flower, 

 which Is quick and never bursts the 

 calyx. 



6th. The transplanting of the 

 fleld-grown plants, which become 

 quickly established and throwing 

 very early flowering shoots in quan- 

 tity and of surprising length. 



7th. The quick growth In the 

 fleld, with its early flowering habit, 

 produces long, stiff stemmed flowers 

 of a beautiful shade of pink, near- 

 ly equal to indoor grown. "Sur- 

 prise" will be a paying proposition 

 for flowering in the fleld. (Plants 

 intended for benching should be kept 

 topped and not let flower in the field.) 

 Price, $12.50 per 100, $110.00 per 1000. 



And here is something really "worth 

 while" for the Rose grower. 



HILL'S AMERICA 



THE E. G. HILL CO. 

 (Rose Premier x Hooeier Beauty) 



Bud long and pointed; flower immense; 

 strong in texture. A good keeper. 



Foliage large, dark green; stems shuost 

 thomless and strong. 



Resembles Columbia in its extraordi- 

 nary, strong, 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.
