"WINTER" 



COLLECTION OF 



SIX 



There i3 no sweeter flower than the Carna. 

 tion, and they are, without question, the best of 

 all plants for Winter blooming. I have selected 

 six of the very choicest kinds, including all colors 

 of this delightful flower, and know you will not 

 be disappointed in getting these varieties. .They 

 are large plants, ready to begin blooming at 

 once. Many of them will be in bud when j 

 send them to you. 



""Winter" Collection of Carna- 

 tions, 10 cents each; or the set 

 of six for 50 cents. : : : 



ALASKA This beautiful white Carnation is re- 

 markable for its extremely vigorous growth, 

 very large flowers, perfect shape, purest white. 

 Indeed for size and freedom of bloom purity of 

 color, which is immaculate, sweetness of per- 

 fume that is delicious, and vigorous growth, 

 this variety has no equal. The best while by 

 far out of a dozen varieties we have ofthat color. 



PAINTED LADY.— Another grand Carnation, 

 with enormous sized flowers, often measuring 

 threeand a halfinchesin diameter, at the same 

 time being one of the freest blooming Carna- 

 tions we have ever seen. Ground color of flower 

 the purest white, very handsomely penciled with 

 richest crimson. 



ARMAZINDY. — The "Pink of Perfection." 

 Probably the most beautiful Carnation yet in- 

 troduced, and must become very popular. Flow- 

 ers are a pure satiny white, and marked and 

 shaded with rosy pink, good size, perfeetform, 

 never bursts. Jt is the strongest and sweetest 

 scented Carnation we know. A perfect beauty. 



WH1TCOMB RILEY.-The ground color is 

 the faintest blush, lightly penciled in soft pink. 

 The bloom is fluffy in appearance, exquisitely 

 beautiful in form. One of the grandest of all 

 Carnations. 



SIRS. THOMAS LAWSON.— No plant of what- 

 ever kind has ever received so much description 

 and free advertising by the newspapers of the 

 whole country as this sensational Carnation. 

 It was sold for $30,000. The size is enormous, of 

 a true pink color. Altogether a twentieth cen- 

 tury Carnation. Everything has been claimed 

 for it, and our own opinion is that it will justify 

 the claim. 



GENEVIEVE LORD.— As large as the largest 

 light pink ever offered. A few blooms last sea- 

 son measured nearly four inches. It has taken 

 first prizes wherever offered. 



BEAUTIFUL CARHTI01S 



Azalea Iudica, 



ALYSSUM. 

 Doable Sweet. This is a great advance over the Single Alyssum. It is 

 indispensable as a cut flower, being a beautiful white, and very fragrant. 

 A very useful edging plant. Continues to bloom till November, as light 

 frosts do not injure it. Al=o fine for Winter blooming in the house. Ele- 

 gant for baskets, vases or window-boxes. 5 cents each. 



AZALEA INDICA. 



One ofthe most gorgeously blooming families, together with the Bhowi- 

 est of all greenhouse plants. The colors of the flowers vary from the purest 

 white to the deepest crimson in untold variations. The soil should always 

 be packed hard when transplanted. Their success depends, however, on 

 the degree of moisture in the atmosphere in which they live. I have a 

 number of the best flowering sorts that will flower finely this coming Win- 

 ter, both double and single-flowered, in any color desired. The plants I 

 offer are magnificent specimens. I receive my importations of Azaleas 

 about the first of November. Send me your order, and I will tile same and 

 ship when they arrive. 60 cents each; fine, large plants, three 

 years old, 75 cents each. 



"N. B.— Be sure and try my Azaleas. They will 

 not disappoint you. In ordering, name the color 

 you wish. I can furnish them in the following 

 colors .' White, pink, crimson, salmon, rosy lilac, 

 and white, striped with crimson.
