New Carnations^e1908-09 



Mrs. Chas. Knopf 



A grann variety; comes into bloom early and remains steady the balance of the season. 

 One of the best varletips that has ever been introduced, and bound to surpass the grand 

 old variety. Enchantrf ss, from which it is a seedling. D«Bortptlon:— The flower is .4^ 

 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 stlffer. it keeps and 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 habit is ideal, closely resembles Enchantress, but produces more flowers. Can be grown either from the field or inside all summer. 

 Likes a temperature of 50 to 62. The stem is 21 inches and over, and holds the flower 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 the old variety, Enchantress. 



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

 the flower is 8 to 8^ inches, with a grand form, built up well in the center, having the most substance of any flower we 

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

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

 Very free producer and cootinuing throughout the season. The stem is 24 to 80 inches, and the first crop is very stiff, but holds up 

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



Tlie above varieties, $12.00 per 100; $100.00 per 1000; 250 at 1000 rate. 

 It don't eost you anything to send for a circular. A postal will bring you one. We invite the trade to come and see the above 

 growing. Delive»y begins with December.

LEXINGTON, KY. 



The Market. 



Trade last week was gooei. The weath- 

 er was changeable the first part of the 

 week, but on Thanksgiving day the ther- 

 mometer registered 60 degrees outside, 

 and the sun was shining brightly all 

 day. The business done was satisfactory 

 in every way. There were thousands of 

 out-of-town people here to see the foot- 

 ball games. Quantities of mums are 

 sold here for the ball games every year 

 at good prices. 



Roses are plentiful, with the excep- 

 tion of Richmond. Several of the florists 

 will discard this variety and put Rhea 

 Beid in its place next year. 



Carnations are producing abundantly. 

 The quality and demand are both good. 

 Some lily of the valley and lilies are 

 coming in and are mostJy used in funeral 

 work. Green goods Sre in good demand. 

 Violets are rather scarce yet. 



Varioui Notes. 



The Hillenmeyer boys were in town 

 and called on J. F. Keller at the green- 

 houses. 



Miss Fannie White, of Anderson & 

 White, says business is good with them. 



Mr. and Mrs. Fred Fister have the 

 good wishes and congratulations of many 

 friends for their little son, who was 

 born Friday, November 20, at their home 

 on the Maysville road. 



It is reported that Mr. Tiplady, the 

 gardener at Elmendorf Farm, on the 

 Maysville road, grows the best carna- 

 tions in this section. 



William Gerlock, the carnation grower 

 for Honaker, has been sending some 

 good stuff to the downtown store. 



Lucien Leclere was busy last week 

 cleaning up the lawns at the I. & O. park, 

 and now has the place in tiptop shape. 



J. A. Keller has planted, in the court- 

 house yard and other places, several 

 thousand bulbs. A recent visit to his 

 greenhouses found everything in good 

 shape. The roses and carnations are pro- 

 ducing abundantly, and a nice house of 

 violets was noted. J. Ferdinand Keller, 

 the manager of the greenhouses, deserves 

 much credit for such a neat place and 

 good stuff. Blue Grass.
