The Wonderful 

 Carnation 



"Wodenethe" 



(Witney) 



White Beauty 



"The white you have 

 been waiting for." 



It has been called by ex- 

 perts the most perfect 

 Carnation ever raised. Tlie 

 flowers are very large, run- 

 ning from 4 to in., of 

 absolutely perfect form, 

 delightfully fragrant, and 

 the calyx positively does 

 not split. 



It is a seedling, now in its 

 fifth year, and has not been 

 unduly forced; conse- 

 quently the habit is very 

 vigorous and its constitu- 

 tion is unimpaired. This 

 variety has never failed to 

 draw forth the warmest 

 praise wherever in has been 

 exhibited. It has easih 

 beaten every variety with 

 which it has been in com- 

 petition. 



A list of its awards to 

 date is given below.

Afterthoughts 



Always, after a catalogue is 

 <ibout to be "closed," it is remem- 

 bered that a few good things were 

 omitted. The following are some 

 of the "afterthoughts." 



Show Dahlia 

 Dorothy Peacock 



The greatest Dahlia accjuisition 

 in years. A beautiful show, of the 

 same clear, soft pink as Nymphaea, 

 shading slightly darker on the 

 outer petals, as the Hower fully 

 I'x pands. It is large and of t he beau- 

 tiful show type, full and regular. 

 75 cts. each, $7.50 per doz. 



Gladiolus, "Peace" 



This is the grandest white va- 

 riety, and the international title of 

 "Peace" was selected for this 

 \aluable type, which will become 

 a standard variety and secure a 

 permanent place in every country 

 when known. 



This variety is not only new, 

 distinct and of more than special 

 merit, but it has wonderful vitality, 

 which will insure perfect satisfac- 

 tion under all reasonable condi- 

 tions. Awarded Certificate of 

 Merit, 1906, by the Society of 

 American Florists and Ornamental 

 Horticulturists. 50 cts. each, $5
