Carnations

Miss Theo. Good rose-pink varieties are scarce 

 and we are satisfied that Miss Theo is good. We be- 

 lieved it would be and assisted in disseminating it last 

 season. It is small compared with some but a producer 

 of good flowers of an even shade of color. 



Mrs. C. W. Ward. In the dark pink section, Mrs. 

 C. W. Ward is the onlv varietv generally grown, and 

 the plant characteristics, combined with keeping 

 lality and high-class bloom, recommcnci \\ to all 

 irnation-growers. A better dark pink tlian this va- 

 has been looked for. but Mrs. C \\ . Ward re- 

 tains its place as the best dark pink really worth grow- 

 ing. 



Nancy. Color light salmon-pink, little darker than 

 Pink Delight and more even color; does not fade. 

 Fragrance is verv noticeable. It keeps well and is a 

 good companion to Alice and Enchantress Supreme. 

 By careful selection of stock in propagating, we find 

 this variety improving each season, both in production 

 and growth. 



Nebraska. A bright scarlet. Plant is a strong 

 grower, producing long, .stiff - stemmed Mowers. 

 Nebraska is the most promising of last season's novel- 

 ties, and we consider it among the best of the large- 

 flowered scarlets. 



Red Wing. A clear scarlet color, with a long, per- 

 fect stem; clean. Iicaltlix j;ro«er. Flowers are nicely 

 formed and do not split the cal\x. It is in many re- 

 spects similar to Beacon but has a better calyx, and 

 with us is a better grower. It is a good safe variety for 

 any one to plant. The flower is of pleasing form and 

 keeps well when cut. 



White Enchantress. This old favorite has stood 

 the test of time and is today one of the three finest 

 white Carnations. It is a clean grower, produces good

This \arictv needs no description to the 

 Carnation-grower. \S i- li.i\c always found it one to be 

 depended upon for results. It is one of the best varie- 

 ties for Christmas scarlet that has ever been intro- 

 duced. 



Benora. The best variegated Carnation. In color 

 it is creamy white, penciled with bright red. It is a 

 free grower .and a go<Kl producer, in addition to being 

 an excellent keeper.

White Wonder. Large, pur

 producer and <ine of the finest 

 a fitting companion to Matchlt 



ress, and we put faith in the combination in one plant- 

 ing, using them in equal quantities, and have the highest 

 quality in white Carnations at all seasons. White 

 Wonder does not produce surplus wood, but every 

 growth will produce a perfect flower. For this reason, 

 this variety is a somewhat difficult propagator, and 

 stock will, therefore, find a ready demand.
