* OUTSTANDING PLANT NOVELTIES FOR 1937 * 
JVe are pleased to offer herewith several very outstanding new plant introductions which will meet with popular demand in 1937 . 
The popularity of these plants is now well established; every florist will profit by offering these introductions to his trade . 
Improved Crimson King 
NEW CARNATION 
Improved 
Crimson King 
The Finest Hardy Everblooming 
Carnation Yet Introduced 
The Truest Hardy Outdoor Carnation. A beau¬ 
tiful strain of hardy pink, which resembles most 
of all the indoor Carnation, blooming in great 
abundance all summer, flowers full double and of 
brilliant crimson color. Excellent for cutting, 
very hardy and extremely fragrant. 
This new introduction is, we believe, of great 
value to the trade not only as a cut-flower but as 
well for garden show and particularly in con¬ 
nection with rock garden planting. Rock Gardens 
are of great interest today and here is a plant 
that will surely please your clients. 2Vz inch pots, 
$1.20 per 12, $8.00 per 100, $75.00 per 1000. 
New 
Oriental Poppies 
N O flower can draw more instant attention and leave a more last¬ 
ing and pleasing impression than a bed of carefully selected 
Oriental Poppies. Either singly, or in mass, they give a touch of 
barbaric splendor offered by no other flower. For five years we have 
been carefully selecting new and better varieties which show superior 
merit and advancement over old types. For the first time, we are in 
position to offer in quantity a selected list of new varieties, each one 
of which is distinctly superior. 
AUSTRALIA — A large massive flower of oxblood red, carried on heavy 
stems. A new Neeley variety of great beauty. $3.25 per 12 ; $25.00 
per 100. 
CAVALIER— A new seedling from the late poppy specialist. Dr. J. H. 
Neeley. Crinkly petals of deep scarlet red. One of the best. 
$3.25 per 12; $25.00 per 100. 
JEANNE MAWSON—Large flowers of geranium pink. Tall, erect 
stems. A beauty. $2.00 per 12; $15.00 per 100. 
LULA A. NEELEY — This variety is our favorite. Good strong stems 
support flowers of brilliant oxblood red, the color holding until the 
last. We predict that this variety will become the most popular Poppy 
in America within a few years. $1.50 per 12; $10.00 per 100. 
MRS. PERRY—Although this Poppy has been on the market for sev¬ 
eral years, it is not widely distributed. A bright clear pink color 
combined with vigorous growth makes Mrs. Perry one of the most 
beautiful varieties. $1.20 per 12; $8.00 per 100. 
PROSERPINE — Of the scarlets, Proserpine, with its striking buds, 
heavy stems and massive flowers, is undoubtedly the best. You can¬ 
not be without this brilliant variety. $1.20 per 12; $8.00 per 100. 
PURITY—Considered by many to be the finest of all poppies. Pure 
soft pink without spot or blemish of any kind. New. $5.00 per 12; 
$40.00 per 100. 
WURTEMBERGIA— A striking flower of great size and substance. 
Brilliant scarlet in color. $1.50 per 12; $10.00 per 100. 
Chinese Evergreen 
(AGLAONEMA MODESTUM)

e are fortunate, in haying an excellent stock of this very outstanding plant. For dependability, no 
plant can compare with Chinese Evergreen for the home. In the past several years, it has increased in 
popularity to the point where it is now the most popular plant in most sections for use in fancy pottery 
and ornaments. 2 y 2 pots $1.75 per 12; $12.00 per 100; Larger plants $3.50 per 12; $25.00 per 100.
