THE CONARD & JONES COMPANY, WEST GROVE, PA. 



Fine Perpetual Blooming Carnations 



NOTE — These splendid Carnation Pinks are among the most beautiful and desirable flowers we have ; 

 highly valued for their constant bloom and delicate fragrance; they flower freely during the Summer and 

 Fall in the garden, and if taken indoors, and kept in a cool, light room, will produce an abundance of 

 lovely flowers all winter. It is best to keep the buds picked oS those intended for winter bloom, and they 

 should be taken in before hard frost, as they are not entirely hardy. The foilowiDg are the finest varieties 

 in cultivation : —
