Carnations of 1935 
reaching the serrated rims of the petals the jets of 
flaming color spread out in fan-like form, casting a 
ruddy carmine glow like dying lava over the rose-ash 
petals. Volcano in all its phases is most spectacular. 
Wanda 
Certainly a step forward in crimson Carnations. 
Blossoms measuring four inches in diameter on dis¬ 
budded plants are not uncommon. The flowers are 
beautifully fringed; intensely fragrant. The center of 
the crimson petals is overlaid with an unusually rich 
scarlet glow. 
Wivelsfield Crimson 
A flower of giant proportions. Uniform large crimson, 
deeply fringed petals, intensely fragrant . . . quite 
distinct from other crimsons in this set. This is a won¬ 
derful cut flower variety, the flowers being borne on 
long, rigid stems that support the enormous flowers in 
upright position.

Royal Robe 
Brings to you a distinct and new shade in Carnations. 
It could be easily imagined that the lovely Carnation 
Royal Robe had been fabricated out of some old and 
very fine imported velour ... a rich velour of glowing 
purple. When you have flowered this Carnation, you 
will sense at once that you have a regal flower in your 
garden, a flower of fine bearing and stately beauty. 
Springtime 
With all the crisp freshness of an April morning 
Springtime reveals itself in radiant beauty. Costumed 
like a peach orchard in rosy pink, the blossoms showing 
not a trace or vestige of any other color, Springtime is 
superb and surpasses all other pink Carnations. You 
will find great delight in the sheer loveliness of this 
fine Carnation. 
Thelma 
A gigantic bloom in a lovely shade of salmon-pink. 
Petals moderately fringed. Notwithstanding the large 
size of the blooms, the calyxes rarely split. A model in 
form; delightfully fragrant. 
Volcano 
This is a very odd Carnation. The center petals 
stand upright in a serrated cone-like formation. Out of 
the heart of the flower seemingly liquid carmine flames 
shoot through the petals with volcanic intensity. Upon 
1934 Introductions 
We offered these superb Carnations to the general 
public for the first time last year. To say that they 
have created a sensation is putting it mildly. We sold 
out early in the season and anticipate an even larger 
demand this season than during the year of 1934. 
Hundreds of commendatory letters have been received 
from customers in all parts of the country. While our 
stock this season is of fairly good size, we would sug¬ 
gest early ordering, to prevent disappointment. 
A1 Malaika 
Distinctly new. A gay flower. Perfect in form. Every 
petal in its place like a perfectly drilled patrol. The 
striking color contrast of the oriental costume is well 
depicted in this variety . . . rich orange striped with 
bars of crimson. The petals are evenly fringed. In ”A1 
Malaika” you will see a new Carnation on parade. 
Allspice 
This novelty Carnation has a fragrance quite difficult 
to describe. A little of this and a little of that. A dash 
of cloves and a little cinnamon, really spicy. The color 
is quite bizarre. Rich golden-yellow splashed with flakes 
of scarlet. Allspice is a particularly free bloomer and a 
stunning variety.
