THE NEW CARNATION 



AFTERGLOW 



HWJE beg to announce that we will offer to the trade, the coming season of 1907 and 1908, the new carnation 

 iff* AFTERGLOW, a variety of sterling merit, which is destined to be grown as universally as the Lawson in 

 f^^^ its time, as it has done exceedingly well wherever it has been tried— in six different sections of the country— 

 the Far East, West and Middle States— and all report it as an "Ideal" commercial variety, grand in every 

 way. It won the S. A. F. Silver Medal, for the best flower or plant, at the Monthly Exhibition of the Cincinnati 

 Floral Exhibition in 1906, and scored 91 points at quite a number of exhibitions held in different cities in the United 

 States. It has never failed to score wherever shown. It scored' the highest of any seedlings at the exhibition of the 

 American Carnation Society, held at Toronto in 1907, after reaching there twenty-four hours late from Framingham, 

 Mass. In color it is everything that the name implies— a brig^ht rosy cerise. In stem it excels any commercial 

 variety now extant, not excepting Enchantress, being somewhat longer and always rigid. Never weak, in habit it is 

 very vigorous, "a Grower's Delight," as it recuperates very readily after planting from the field; also from the sand. 

 It loses no time in getting to work. AFTERGLOW has been g^rown for the past season by the under- 

 signed and offered by them. 



Orders no^y booked, to be filled in rotation for yyell gro'wn« well rooted 

 cuttings, at $2.00 per dozen; 818.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000.

New Carnation 



Brilliant Scarlet 



DEFIANCE 



E^3HIS sterling novelty is the result of a cross between Estelle and a seedling 

 11^ with Maceo and Daybreak blood in it, and was originated by W. N. Rudd, 

 ^^ Mount Greenwood, 111. The color is a most brilliant scarlet, brighter than 

 anything seen in Carnations heretofore; size, 3 inches and over; habit and form 

 ideal. It is a very rapid grower and has no tendency to produce surplus grass, 

 every shoot advancing rapidly and producing a perfect flower. If you did not 

 already place your order for some, we would advise you to do so without delay, 

 so as to get early delivery. 



$12.00 per lOO; $IOO.OO per lOOO. Usual discount on larger orders. > 



There may be other reds* but there is only one scarlet carnation, and 

 that is DEFIANCE. Come and see it growing, and be convinced.
