NEW PERPETUAL FLOWERING CARNATIONS. 
Admiration (A). A beautiful shade of rosy flesh pink, with a wonderful 
satin finish. The flowers are of the same size as Enchantress, to which 
variety it is closely allied, but is of a very superior form and colour. It 
produces a very early crop of bloom, borne on strong stems; habit is 
quick and free. 
Bay State f A), white, pencilled carmine; bold noble flowers, and a 
great addition to this clas<; the habit of growth is distinctly good. We 
have*watched this variety for several years, and are now pleased to be 
able to list it. 
Black Chief (B). This is a large, deep velvety crimson of mo<t excellent 
build; the petals being clean cut, the flowers are evenly formed, with a 
sweet, rich scent. The growth is very robust, making almost double 
the size plant during the season than any other crimson, with clean, 
healthy foliage; the stems are long and always stilt. It will flourish 
well under all systems of cultivation, and is a variety we strongly 
recommend. 
Conquest (A), light pink, overlaid almost to the edge of the petal with 
deep rose pink. The outer petals stand out well, showing off the 
beautiful combination of colours which make this one of the best fancy 
varieties; habit of growth is free and early. 
Delight (A). A delightful shell pink, with a trace of salmon in it; the 
flowers are of medium size, with a good scent and perfect build, smooth 
edged petals, borne on long, stiff stems; it comes into bloom early and 
is cmtinuous, the growth being clean and healthy. 
Fortuna (B). A pale chrome-yellow, and a decided addition to this class 
of colour, although the flowers are not large; habit of growth is strong 
and free. 
Lady Dainty (B) is a delightful fancy variety, being white, daintily 
overlaid pale purple. It is the result of a cross between a purple seedling 
of great merit and Lady Bountiful, having a very similar habit to its 
seed parent. 
May Day (A). A delightful flesh pink, almost identical in shade with 
Eair Maid,\)\xt the flowers are of better form, with absolute non-bursting 
calyx ; the growth and productiveness is also greatly in advance of that 
variety. 
(B) British. 
In small pots, each 2s. cd. 
Mrs. Chas. Knopf (A) is a seedling from Enchantress , and is a 
slightly deeper shade of flesh pink; the flowers are g : gantic, said to 
average 4 in., with better guard petals than its parent, while the calyx 
is a little stronger; the habit of growth is very strong and free. 
Mrs. T. M. Crook U *,)1 s one of the most distinct and beautiful fancy 
varieties, having aground colour of pale crimson, heavily veiled with a 
profusion of rich crimson. The flowers are made up of large flat petals, 
with a very full scent ; a remarkable free flowering variety. 
Regal Mauve (B) is a distinct shade of imauve, rendered so popular 
by Her Most Gracious Majesty Queen Alexandra; habit of growth is 
very quick and early. 
Rival (B), a new shade of colour, being a salmon cerise, not cerise but of 
a. salmon shade. The flowers are large, with good guard petals and 
high well-built centre. It has two meritorious seedlings for its parents. 
The habit of growth, stem, and calyx leave nothing to be desired. 
Roseate Dawn (B) is a glorious pale shade oK old rose. The flowers 
are up to the average size, with a full high-built centre and large 
fringed outer petals, clove-scented. The habit of growth is robust. 
Royal Purple (B). A rich shade of purple, forming a delightful con- 
trast to other colours. The habit of growth is sltong. with good foliage 
and very free. 
Ruby (A) is a light shade of crimson. The flowers are very large and full, 
with fringed petals ; a very free and quick grower. 
Scarlet Glow (A), of extraordinary bright shade, which never becomes 
dull, with well-rounded flowers and of great lasting capacity. 
Shasta (A) is a pure glistening white at all seasons of the year. The 
flowers are of good size, and compact round form ; a ve y early and free 
flowering variety. 
Sangamo (A), a brilliant pink, very attractive. It is of strong, healthy 
upright growth, and free branching habit, which enables it to produce a 
larger crop of flowers than almost any other variety. 
Sarah A. Hill (A). This is said to be the largest while ever introduced : 
the flower is of the true American type, with deeply fimbriated petals of 
excellent substance. 
J. Whitcombe Riley (A) is the first true pure yellow variety. The 
colour is deep and rich even under artificial light. The habit cf growth 
is very free, and can be described as a yellow Lawson.
