The Best That The 

 , Future Has To OTffier 



IT IS our custom to handle only varieties we believe to be worthy of a place in the best commercial 

 establishments. The new Roses we have offered in past seasons have made a reputation for them- 

 selves and the character o^ stock we have sent out has made an enviable reputation for our firm. 

 €LWe offer Killarney Brilliant in the belief that it is the coming standard of perfection. We have 

 Arranged with the originators for eyes for grafting purposes. We can supply any quantity you may require. 



Killarney Brilliant 



A sport from Killarney, Rnpwn in the open ground in Endand. 

 Killarney was introduced in 1898, and since (hen there have been so 

 many sports that Killarney has developtsd into a type rather than a 

 variety. Mr>8srs. Alexander Dickxon & Sons, the original intro- 

 ducers, are tu be concratu'ated, sixteen years after the advent of 

 Killarney, in ffivinf as now this distinct novelty which is undoubt- 

 edly the best of all varieties of this type. 



Killarney Brilliant has the same habit of growth and the same 

 freedom of bloom as its parent while the flower is twice as large, 

 having 25 to 40 full-sized petals. It will be as u«eful for Summer 

 blooming as for Winter forcing. The color I* a very brilliant pink 

 and varies like Killarney: in bright weatler it is almost crimson, 

 and in dull weather, when Killarney is so pale, it is as bright as 

 Killarney at its best. The sale of Killarney Brilliant a jear before 

 its introdurtion has been larger than that of any other Robe ever 

 sent out in this country. 

 Oraftcd Plants, 75c each; $7.50 per dozen; $35.00 per 100; 

 $300.00 per 1000.

New Carnation Gloria 



(H. W. Field and A. N. Pierson, Inel) 



In offering this new Carnation to the trade, we off-'r what we 

 bolifve to be a paying i-ommerclal variety: strong in growth, 

 making a qnantity of flowering shoots rather than wonde ful 

 length of individual stems. In <olor, the brightest pink we have 

 evnr seen in a carnation, and a color that will sell, whirh, com- 

 bined with go >d calyx, fair-sieed bloom and great production, 

 makes this an attractive propotitlon to a man who knows Carna- 

 tions.

NEWPOET, K. L 



The Market. 



The florists of this city, as well aa 

 those of New York who maintain branch 

 establishments here during the summer 

 months, express themselves as well sat- 

 isfied with the summer's business. The 

 numerous large social functions — din- 

 ners, luncheons and dances — together 

 with the tennis tournament and horse 

 show, have created an unusually active 

 demand for decorations and cut flowers, 

 that has kept the floriste busy. Orchids 

 and lilies of the valley have been among 

 the leaders.
