CARNATION SNOWDON. 
NEW MONTHLY CARNATION,

This cut gives a fair representation of this most valu- 
able Carnation. Its merits are that the flowers are of the 
purest white, borne in unequaled profusion on plants that 
rarely ever exceed one foot in height. This quaiity of dwarf- 
ness makes it exceedingly valuable. as it can be grown close 
to the grass on front benches of the green-house. As a pot- 
plant for the parlor, or for market purposes, it has no supe- 
rior.
