Description of Our New White Carnation 



GEORGIA 



COME AND SEE IT 



Best for QUANTITY 



GEORGIA 



The color of Georgia is a pure white with large 

 and beautifully fringed flowers measuriner as lartje 

 as four inches, with a \ery full (-enter, which gives it 

 a good form. 



The stem holds the flower up at all times, givinK 

 long stems early in the season, as we have a house 

 in bloom where toe stems at the present time. Sep- 

 tember 1.5, average 21 inches in length. 



The growth ix ideal, having the dark green cast 

 that all growers like. 



The plants are quick to recover after planting 

 from the Held and produce as many or more flowers 

 than Knehantress. 



It has stood the necessary test as to its shipping 

 iind keeping qualities and has been satisfactory in 

 every case, although we have shipped it as far west 

 as Missouri and as far south as Florida. It has been 

 culled by all who have seen it the linest u hite yet 

 put on the market, as it is as wonderful in quantity 

 as it is in quality.
