...THE FflWOUS $30,000.00 CflKNflTIOfl. 



This famous Carnation was bought last year for $30,000.00, 

 the highest price ever paid for a flower of any kind. A stand-

 find one, so it still remains undisputedly the best in the world. The 

 flowers are the largest, deepest, best formed. The stems are the 

 longest and strongest. The color, purest rose pink, which illumi- 

 nates splendidly under artificial light. Plants ready in March.
