A Grand New Carnation 



outclasses everything heretofore grown in the daric pinic section. Won 



first honors in the 100 class for best dark pink at the A. C. S. meeting, Pittsburg, 

 January, 1910, also at the Chicago Flower Show, November, 1909. 



It is a pure, bright, dark pink of even shade, size Sj4 inches, an early and 

 continuous bloomer, bring^ fully 25 per cent more flowers to the plant than Lawson 

 at its best ; flowers well shaped on long, wiry stems ; calyx does not split. It is a 

 good shipper, and the cuttings root easy.

already made. The first method, suited 

 to upland soils, is to set the plants in 

 trenches or separate holes in well-rotted 

 peat at least a foot in depth, and mulch 

 the surface well either with leaves or 

 with clean sand. The excavations 

 should provide ample space for new 

 growth of the roots, and the peat used 

 may be either of the bog or upland 

 type, and should have been rotted for 

 several months before using. The soil 

 should afford good drainage, the ideal 

 condition of the peat about the roots 

 of the plant being one of continued 

 moisture during the growing season, 

 but with all the free water draining 

 readily so that thorough aeration of the 

 mass of peat is assured. 



The second method of field culture 

 suggested is to set the plants in a peat 

 bog after the bog has been drained, 

 turfed, and deeply mulched with sand, 

 just as for cranberry culture, except 

 that no special provision need be made 

 for rapid flooding of the bog for winter, 

 and the ground water of the bog might 

 be kept a little lower than is usual with 

 cranberries. Before beginning the 

 work, these experiments should be care- 

 fully studied by any one proposing to 

 undertake the culture of blueberries. 

 A bulletin has been issued on the sub- 

 ject. It is No. 193 of the Bureau of 

 Plant Industry. 



NAME OF PLANT. 



Please tell me the name, habitat and 

 longevity of this plant, of which I send 

 you a bloom and leaf. I have not seen 

 anything more than this and want to 

 know whether it is an annual or a 

 hardy shrub. This one has been in

bloom three months and no one here 

 seems to know what it is. M. C. C. 



It is Anemone Japonica alba, a valu- 

 able fall flowering, hardy herbaceous 

 perennial. In the northern states it re- 

 quires , a liberal mulch of leaves or 

 straw to prevent winter-killing, and 

 is better planted in spring than fall. 

 It is easily and abundantly propagated 

 from root cuttings under glass. Flow- 

 ers may be had from August until No- 

 vember. The value of these beautiful 

 Japanese anemones is not half appre- 

 ciated by commercial florists. They 

 are fine for cutting and excellent in 

 design work. One or two fine varieties 

 are: Queen Charlotte, silvery pink; 

 Whirlwind, double white; Japonica 

 alba, single white; Prince Henry, 

 double, deep pink; Lady Ardilaun, 

 rosy purple. ' C. W.
