Newer Introductions of Carnations 
CLARK’S BEAUTY —Introduced by Geo. K. Groff last year, grown by Howard E. Clark. 
Possesses the qualities that Carnation growers seek, and will hold its own beside any of 
the newer varieties in its keeping qualities. Color is an outstanding Glowing Pink and the 
bloom averages 3'/2 inches across. Sturdy stem, and the only Dark Pink with a spicy 
fragrance. Firm calyx, good producer and even late cuttings will develop into strong 
plants. Should be given a trial by all Carnation growers. 
Rooted Cuttings, $12.50 per 100; $100.00 per 1000 
OLIVETTE —Pure White and one of the loveliest formed Carnations we have ever seen. The 
bloom measures about three inches across. The fragrance of the flowers is exquisite. Re¬ 
markable shipper and keeper. hirst flowers in the Fall from this variety are the finest 
of any variety of any color with which we are familiar. You cannot afford to overlook 
this Variety.

PHAROAH —Introduced last year and the originator could not begin to meet the tremendous 
demands for this unusual Novelty. The petals are a bright orange, and the tips of each 
petal are fringed with red. There are no pencilings. Blooms measure from 3*/2 to 4'/2 
inches across and are well formed. Heavy producer, stems are stiff and straight, calyx 
never splits and is an exceptionally fine keeper. Premium prices can always be secured.

RUTH HENGSTENBERG —Similar in color to Virginia. The blooms are larger and fuller 
than those of Virginia, and the plants are larger and more productive. Long stems and 
of good substance. Flowers are good keepers and there is very little splitting.
