CARNATIONS—ROOTED CUTTINGS 
WHITE ENCHANTRESS—Ours is a 
carefully selected strain, in perfect con¬ 
dition, and in good health. 
SCARLETS AND CRIMSON 
BELLE WASHBURN (Novelty, 
1916—Bassett & Washburn)—-“Brilliant 
red— size 3 V 2 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.
