WHITE VARIETIES 
PURITAN. Last year we claimed that this variety was the season's most sensa¬ 
tional white offering. Its performance since that time has certainly justified our 
claim. Its praises are being sung by growers everywhere. While not an exhi¬ 
bition bloom, it is of fine quality and good size. The blooms are delightfully 
fragrant. It is one of the most productive varieties grown today. It has a long 
stem, a firm calyx and its keeping qualities are all that could be desired. The 
color is pure white at all times. The plants are large and vigorous and are 
disease-resistant. They branch very freely and produce an abundance of cuttings.

PATRICIAN. This variety needs no description. Many white varieties have come 
and gone since Patrician was introduced, yet this fine variety is still one of the 
leading whites. The blooms are of show quality, yet are produced in abundance. 
The plants are large and bushy, and the stems are stiff and straight. The variety 
ships and keeps well and is decidedly a profitable carnation to grow.

PURITY. This is one of the finest of the English carnations, and one which seems 
to improve the longer we grow it. The blooms are pure white, are above medium 
size, are carried on very long stems and have firm calyces. The flowers are full, 
and are beautifully formed with fringed petals. The plants are large and grow 
rapidly. Production is high and keeping qualities are excellent.

ANTARCTIC. A very large, pure white bloom with high, full center and beauti¬ 
fully fringed petals. It is a remarkable producer of high quality flowers which 
keep and ship to perfection and are very fragrant. This variety has won many 
medals and awards, and brings us premium prices over much of the season. At 
the Spring flower show in Boston last year, Antarctic twice won first prize over all 
other white varieties. The stems are long and strong, and the calyx very seldom 
splits.

WHITE MY LOVE. This is a pure white sport of My Love, and has all of the 
characteristics of the parent plant. It is noted particularly for its remarkable keep¬ 
ing qualities, its splendid production and its ability to open up wonderfully in 
water. If My Love has done well with you, you should certainly try White My 
Love.

IVORY. This remarkable old variety has its place in the greenhouse when grown 
properly. It is one of the heaviest producing varieties grown, is very disease- 
resistant and is seldom bothered by insect pests. It is one of the easiest varieties 
to grow, and its deeply fringed blooms are excellent for floral work. Our Ivory of 
the past few years has been so fine that we have increased rather than decreased 
our planting of it in spite of the fact that we have many other fine white varieties.

all other varieties in some sections of the country. It is a good producer of high 
quality blooms. It has fine stems and large, bushy plants. Patent agreements 
must be signed.
