PAUL j. HOWARD’S 
NEW CARNATIONS 
Such a great advancement in size, form and fragrance, 
and so many new and alluring colors have been made in the 
last few years, unless one is growing the newer varieties he 
cannot realize what wonderful beauty and interest is to be 
enjoyed in Carnations in the garden. Both in this country and 
in England wonderful strides have been made in the improve¬ 
ment of the Perpetual-flowering Carnation. It is from the 
finest of these creations that we have chosen our list; which 
you will find to be varieties of immense size, and entrancing 
fragrance, and of new colors one would never expect in Car¬ 
nations. 
Rainbow colorings in an almost unbelievable range, petals fringed, 
striped, flaked and marbled coupled with rich fragrance and free 
blooming distinguish this new race of Carnations. 
A vase of these remarkable creations elicits 
exclamations of admiration from all who see it.
