SELECT CARNATIONS 



The Carnations which we supply in Spring are thrifty young plants from 

 pots and should be planted out in the garden as soon as danger from frost 

 is over. These plants will begin flowering in July and continue until killed by 

 severe frost. If intended for winter flowering, the plants should not be 

 permitted to bloom during the summer, but all flower shoots cut out to 

 induce the plants to grow bushy. This should be continued until late in 

 August, when the plants maybe lifted and placed in pots or planted on the 

 tables in the greenhouse.

CHRYSANTHEMUMS 



Our list has been carefully revised. All the varieties selected are such that have made their mark on the exhibition table. At 

 the same time great care has been taken to confine the various varieties known to the trade as " easy doers," that is, varieties which 

 can be grown under ordinary conditions, eliminating those which require special skill and facilities to bring to perfection.
