NELROSE 



The Best Pink Antirrhinum to Date and 

 the Cut Flower Novelty of the Year 



Won Silver Cap at last International Show 

 and First Prizes wherever exhibited. 



The color is a pure self-pink of about the 

 shade of Gloriosa Carnation at its best. Contin- 

 uous bloomer — no blind wood or "brush." Stem 

 very stiff. Flowers extra large and beautifully 

 waved. 



LATE CUTTINGS ARE BEST 



Experienced growers are a unit, we believe, in 

 the opinion that Antirrhinum plants from April 

 and May-struck cuttings give best results. It is 

 the time when stock plants are at their best and 

 strong cuttings from selected spikes are possible. 

 These rooted cuttings are well established in 

 small pots and ready for delivery in May and 

 June. Plant into the greenhouse as soon as beds 

 are ready, and keep them grovfing. Never 

 let the plants get hard and woody. This is 

 pretty nearly the whole story in the successful 

 culture of Antirrhinums in the greenhouse. Bet- 

 ter get your order booked at once for some of 

 these best plants, and you will then have the 

 laugh on the fellow who insisted on getting his 

 stock in January and February.

A Voice from "Across the Seas" 



••THE COMING FLOWER" 



"A month ago. while talking to one of our leading nurserymen, I asked him what he considered was the coming 

 flower. He answered without hesitation, 'The Antirrhinum,' and cited the improTements wrought on it in recent years 

 which have brought it to the forefront. I was reminded of my friend's remark when 1 was at the show of the Royal 

 Horticultural Society last week and saw the striking exhibit put up by Messrs. Wm. Wells & Co. This firm staged 

 blooms of a winter-flowering Antirrhinum named Nelrose, the first of a new race from America. The flowers were of 

 a charming shade of pink, and in every way as good as those grown in summer, while the foliage of deep green was 

 suggestive of the wallflower. Other colors (from the American originator) are expected in the near future."— Editorial 

 in Garden Life (London), Jan. 24, 1914. 



European growers can procure plants from Wm. Wells & Co., Merstham, Surrey, 

 England, who have a stock of Nelrose for dissemination. Write them for prices.
