New Carnations for 1904 



Albatross. The whitest of white Carnations. Early and free 

 flowering ; as good for the field as for the house. Produces 

 only flowering wood, and is never out of crop ; strong, clove- 

 scented, not a fancy variety, but an every-day money-maker. 

 Flowers from 2 to 2^ inches in diameter ; stem in length 

 average about like Lawson. ^2.00 per dozen ; ^10.00 per 

 loo; ;^75.0oper 1000 



Boston Market. A fine, free-growing white variety ; habit 

 similar to Flora Hill, but very much stronger ; pure white. 

 An excellent commercial sort. 50 cents per dozen; ^3.00 

 per 100 ; ^25.00 per looo. 



Flamingo. This is the Carnation of the year ; a grand and 

 important variety in every respect. Color a rich brilliant 

 scarlet ; can be had in full crop by Christmas, or even earlier, 

 if desired ; produces only strong flowering wood ; stems two 

 feet and over ; flowers of fine form and substance, with perfect 

 calyx ; a good keeper and shipper, a continuous bloomer, and 

 unexcelled for strength and vigor. $;^ 00 per dozen ; ;gi2.oo 

 per 100 ; ^100.00 per 1000. 



Indianapolis. The result of a cross between Armazindy and 

 Mrs. F. Joost, which is sufficient guarantee for its floriferous 

 ness. In color it is a very bright shade of clear pink, without 

 a trace of either blue or salmon, and does not fade. Size of 

 flowers, 3 to 334 inches. Form round and high built ; calyx 

 perfect ; stem long and strong ; habit of plant ideal ; an early 

 and continuous bloomer. ^2.00 per dozen ; ^12.00 per 100 ; 

 5100.00 per 1000. 



Mackinaw. Produces an enormous quantity of fine, large, 

 full, very fragrant flowers in the early part of the season, when 

 carnations are scarce. The plant is exceptionally floriferous ; 

 the flowers of fine shape, with a long, strong calyx, on long, 

 wiry stems. $2.00 per dozen ; ^lo 00 per 100 ; $75.00 per 

 1000. 



Nelson Fisher. Color an intense cerise, bordering on scarlet; 

 as compared with Lawson, its pollen parent, much deeper and 

 more solid in color. It may not produce as many flowers as 

 Lawson, but will figure out fully as well at the end of the 

 season. Stem, 12 to 15 inches in the fall, increasing to 24 to 

 30 inches towards spring. Calyx perfect, and rarely bursts. 

 Flowers average 3 to 3 5^ inches, and are high built. It has a 

 strong, vigorous constitution, and is much easier to grow than 

 Lawson. $3.00 per dozen; $12.00 per 100 ; $100.00 per 

 1000. 



Mrs. M. A. Patten. Among variegated varieties this car- 

 nation holds the same position as Enchantress and Lawson in 

 their colors, and is decidedly in the same class. Its ground 

 color is white, beautifully marked with pink (of the same 

 shade as Lawson), and just enough of it to make the flower 

 attractive. Early blooms are large, averaging 3 to 3^ inches. 

 Stems stiff and long from the first ; habit of the plant perfect. 

 $3.00 per dozen ; $12.00 per 100 ; $100.00 per 1000. 



Lady Bountiful. Pure, glistening white, 3 to 3 '/2 inches in 

 diameter ; form perfect for a high grade commercial variety ; 

 stem 24 inches and over ; stiff and wiry ; spicy clove fragrance. 

 A very strong feature is its excellent keeping and shipping 

 quality. An early, free, and continuous bloomer, with a 

 clean, healthy, upright growth. $3.00 per dozen ; $12.00 

 per 100 ; $100.00 per 1000. 



Sunbird. The strongest and best of the yellows ; large, 

 beautifully formed flowers, on strong, stiff stems ; early, con- 

 tinuous and free, and will prove profitable. $2. 00 per dozen ; 

 $10.00 per 100; $75.00 per 1000. 



The Belie. Has all the good qualities of Flora Hill, but 

 entirely eliminating its weak points. A strong, healthy 

 grower, with long, stiff stems ; large flowers, of best form, 

 very fragrant, phenomenally early, and not lacking in freedom ; 

 certain to take the place of Flora Hill as a white. $3.00 per 

 dozen ; $12.00 per 100 ; $100 00 per looo. 



The President. One of the brightest colored ; the largest 

 flowered, best formed, longest stemmed crimson carnations 

 Flowers enormous ; 3 inches and upwards, upon perfectly stiff 

 stems of over 2 feet. A strong, vigorous grower, and a most 

 striking crimson in every way. $3 00 per dozen ; $12.00 per 

 100; $100.00 per 1 000.
