Color: — Brilliant scarlet, good even shade. 



Form: — Large 3 to 3^^-inch, well rounded flowers, full center, scalloped edges, 

 outer petals standing out well, showing the flower off to good advantage. 



Calsrx: — Strong, large calyx; never bursts, very much on the order of Har- 

 lowarden. 



Habit: — Ideal, upright growth; deep green colored foliage, breaks readily 

 from the base, making a rapid growth and producing flowers in remarkably short 

 time. Easy to grow and propagate. 



Stem: — Long and strong, not heavy, always stiff enough 

 to hold the large flower perfectly erect. 



Guarantee 



We guarantee this variety to fill a long felt want for a good 

 all-around commercial scarlet; one that will produce high grade 

 flowers with long stems right from the beginning of the season 

 to the end. 



The Herald is the Best Commercial Scarlet for you to grow, 

 because it will produce more perfect flowers in a season than 

 any other scarlet and bring a higher price than any other; 

 because the flowers are all perfect; stem stiff and keeps the 

 longest. Compared with Enchantress it will produce one-third 

 more blooms. No culls; no splits; no weak stems. All rooted 

 cuttings guaranteed strong, well rooted and satisfactory in 

 every respect.

 Robert Miller, president of the Miller^ 

 Floral Co., Farmington, Utah, who spent 

 several days here last week on his way 

 home from a trip through the east, said 

 January 22 that of all the novelties 

 seen on his travels he was specially 

 pleased with Carnation The Herald. He 

 made a trip to Joliet to see it growing 

 and said it looked to him like a good 

 money-making proposition for his ship- 

 ping trade in cut flowers. He is ship- 

 ping over a wide radius in the inter- 

 mountain territory, where there is a 

 good market for red carnations, and he 

 left a good-sized order for cuttings of 

 The Herald for delivery March 1.
