New Carnations - 1908 - 09 



Mrs. Chas. Knopf 



A grand variety; comen Into bloom early and remains steady the balance of the season. 

 One of the best varieties that haB ever been introduced, and bound to surpasis the grand 

 old variety. Enchantress, from which it is a seedling. Description:— The tlowpr is 4H 

 inches and over, with a better form than Enchantress, well built up in the center and has a wide guard petal, with stiffness that gives it a 

 grand make-up in general. Having much more substance and the petals being stiffer. it keeps nnd ships much better than the above 

 variety. The calyx is very stiff and large, giving the flower a chance to develop freely, and does not burst as much as Enchantress. 

 The habft is ideal, closely resembles Enrbantress, but produces more flowers. Can b? grown either from the field or inside all summer. 

 Likes a temperature of 50 to 62. The stem is 2t inches and over, and holds the flo;sy«r up gracefully at all times of the year. It gives one 

 good stems the first crop. One of the grandest yet sent out and is bound to surpass tbe old variety. Enchantress. 



Ruby 



Beautiful scarlet crimson, one of the best ever sent out. Does not turn black with age or after shipping. The fize of 

 the flower is 8 to 3*3 Inches, with a grand form, built up well in the center, having the most substanee of any flower we 

 know of. One of the best shippers and keepers. The calyx is short, but of tough texture and well expanded, givicg the 

 flower freedom to expand. The habit is ideal: easy to handle: does well from field or grown inside all summer. Temperature. 50 to 52. 

 Very free producer and coc tinning throughout the season The stem is 21 to 80 inches, and the first crop is very stiff, but holds up , 

 the flower gracefully at all times of the year. This variety is sure tp give satisfaction and find a place among the standards.
