SCARLETS ANI) CRIMSON 
BELLE WASHBURN (Novelty, 
191(1 — Bassett & Washburn) — “Brilliant 
red — size 3%to 4 inches, on stems 24 to 
36 inches; never bursts its calyx; is as 
free and continuous as Enchantress; 
comes into bloom by December 1 and is 
continuous throughout the season.” 
$3.50 per Hundred, $30.00 per Thousand 
CHAMPION — An extra fine scarlet 
very early in its production of good 
flowers, very free, with long stiff stems, 
good calyx and a fine flower of very 
intense, clear shade. 
The variety has been characterized as 
“The Scarlet White Wonder”; growing 
in popularity with careful carnation 
men. A fine companion for Beacon. 
Grow some of both. 
BEACON — Still “the” standard red; 
probably the freest carnation in exist 
ence. Our stock is in magnificent con- 
dition, and has shown no deterioration. 
Carefully selected. 
POCAHONTAS— This variety is 
deserving of the name magnificent in 
form, size, and especially in color, which 
is velvety crimson with lighter shad- 
ings; it has stiff stems, perfectly erect, 
and is free in bloom; as nearly perfect 
as a variety can be — sells on sight. The 
finest crimson yet produced. 
$3.50 per Hundred, $30.00 per Thousand 
PINK VARIETIES 
ALICE COOMBS (Novelty, 1916 — A. 
Roper) — Of lovely clear, bright pink, a 
trifle deeper than Gloriosa, and a free, 
strong grower with medium grass and a 
long, very strong stem. 
It belongs in the large-flowered class, 
blooms freely produced, one of the best 
keepers and an easy doer. 
NANCY (Dorner’s Novelty, 1916) — 
“Lovely, light salmon, a little deeper 
than Pink Delight, and more even in 
color. Blooms 3 inches and over, never 
shows a bursted calyx; stems upright; 
as a producer stands highest among 
commercial varieties.” 
MRS. C. W. WARD — A perfectly 
formed flower with full center; color, 
deep pink, of pure brilliant shade, hav- 
ing strong, erect stems 24 to 36 inches 
in length. The most popular pink vari- 
ety on the market. 
ENCHANTRESS— Still the leader 
with a great many florists who put 
their chief dependence on it and its 
white sport. 
By persistent and careful selection of 
cuttings, our stock is prime — truly 
“select.” 
ROSE-PINK — Still indispensable to 
many growers. Our stock of this vari- 
ety has been annually selected to color. 
ENCHANTRESS SUPREME — Color 
a light salmon pink — a shade that is not 
only very attractive, but also one that 
endures full exposure to the sun without 
bleaching, and retains its color at all 
seasons. Promises to supersede Enchant- 
ress entirely, because it does not split, 
and because it holds its color.
