ROOTED CUTTINGS. 
We are headquarters for Booted Cuttings of all the best 
varieties of Carnations. Our list of varieties are those found after 
comparative test to be most worthy of recommendation. We can 
also furnish other leading varieties not here mentioned at market 
prices. 
SPECIAL PRICES FOR LARGE QUANTITIES ON APPLICATION. 
Grown in our greenhouses, we take especial care to ship only 
strong, healthy, well-rooted cuttings from side shoots which can¬ 
not fail to thrive and give satisfaction. 
ESTABLISHED CUTTINGS FROM SOIL AND POTS. 
The past season we met with a considerable demand for 
cuttings established in soil and pots. They are always preferable to 
cuttings from sand, being much larger plants and make more 
rapid growth, and can be shipped safely without loss. We can 
supply established plants from the soil of all the following named 
varieties at $ 1.25 per 100 above the price charged for cuttings from 
sand.
