REASONS 



MAY' 



Why You Should Plant MAY 



May is a strictly commercial variety. Business 

 from beginning to end. 



It comes into bloom early and continues unin- 

 terruptedly until the end of the season. 



It is freer than any other light pink we know of. 



The size of the bloom is just what you want in 

 quantity, 2}4 to 'Syi inches. 



The color is deeper and brighter and more even 

 than Enchantress and holds better. 



The form is well shown in illustration. 

 It is not so crowded in the center as Enchant- 

 ress, therefore opens quicker. 



The calyx never splits and stem is always strong. 



The plant grows strong and upright and about 

 as tall as Lady Bountiful. 



Makes nice plants in the field and transplants 

 easily. 



We invite yOu to come and see our stock of it 

 any time; you will like its habit.

but a good, honest, free and ever-blooming clear white carna- 

 tion, very easily rooted, very fragrant, excellent keeper and 

 shipper. Size and stem of Enchantress, with the freedom of bloom 

 of McGowen; no cropper— always in bloom. Come and see it 

 and give it a trial. Once grown, you will not grow any other.

The garden committee of the Massachusetts Horticultural Society recently visited the 

 greenhouses of H. A. Jahn, of New Bedford, to see his carnations. A white seedling which is 

 largely planted and which has been shown at Boston and other shows, was looking fine. It is 

 the most wonderfully prolific white the committee had seen. The flower is large, full and the 

 stem ideal.— Boston News-letter in Nov. 28, 1907, issue of The Floeists' Review. 



The seedling referred 

 to by the committee is
