Carnations 
We make a specialty of Carnations and grow them in large quantities. We find the 
demand for them is increasing more and more every year. They are almost hardy in the 
South, requiring only slight protection during very severe weather. Plant very early in the 
spring so that they will get well established before hot weather. Pinch the top shoots 
several times during the summer, to encourage a bushy growth. If wanted for winter 
blooming pot in October. The cut-flowers will last a week or more in an ordinary sitting- 
room, and very few flowers have such a delightful fragrance. 
10c. each, $1 per doz. We will Bend 15 nice plants, different sorts, by mail, unlabeled, for $1.
