This is a salmon pink seedling of 1932. The 
flowers are very large and full-centered yet they 
do not split the calyx and are borne on exception¬ 
ally strong, straight stems, which hold the flower 
erect at all seasons. 
The color is uniform and does not fade as the 
warm, bright days of Spring arrive. Neither does 
the size decrease. In fact the blooms constantly 
improve as the season advances. 
We are always able to secure premium prices for 
blooms of Aida from the start of the season. 
The plants are large, bushy and vigorous and are 
easy to grow and propagate. 
Production is heavy and continuous. 
The blooms ship well and keep well. Most of the 
flowers of Aida have been shipped to outside 
markets where they have arrived in perfect con¬ 
dition and have sold at premium prices. 
There is no salmon pink carnation today of any 
commercial consequence in a class with Aida.
