 Immediate Bloom 



CARNATION PINKS are the sweetest . and most beautiful 

 flowers you can possibly have for Winter bloom, and 

 it is easy to have them in abundance if you get Our 

 Strong Field-grown Clumps, which are specially prepared 

 for Winter flowering, and will break into full bloom 

 almost as soon as potted, and continue bearing their 

 Ijvely flowers as long as in growing condition. We 

 can send small orders by mail at prices given, but it is 

 better, whenever convenient, to have these large
