The Florists^ Review 



July 17, 101 3. 



Our Continuous Ring Carnation Support (Patented) 



will prove the greatest convenience and time-saver ever 

 put in your greenhouse. Very simple, easy and quick 

 to put up or take down. No time lost in tying rings 

 and supports, as this support is Self-tying. Easily ad- 

 justed to any desired height. Very little space required 



for storage between seasons. Continuous Rings will be 

 made in any desired length to suit width of the bed. 

 Ideal for the growing of Carnations. Severe Spraying 

 does not disarrange Rings.
