CARNATION 
SCARLET KING. This, without question, is the 
most outstanding Hardy Carnation discovered 
in recent years. It produces large, solid double 
scarlet flowers on sturdy stems 12 to 14 inches 
in length. This is the closest resemblance to 
good quality greenhouse Carnations that we 
have ever seen. The outstanding value of this 
plant is that when small 2¥%-inch pot plants 
are planted outdoors in proper planting sea- 
son in the spring, five to six weeks after 
planting, the first attractive flowers will 
appear. Within a very short time, the entire 
plant is covered with beautiful glowing scarlet 
flowers, which are most suitable for use in 
floral pieces. This is also one of the most 
showy plants in the hardy garden. The plants 
are exceptionally hardy along the lake regions; 
the winters do not seem to set them back; they 
continue to produce heavy crops of flowers 
for over a period of years. We highly recom- 
mend that you make a planting of this most 
outstanding Hardy Carnation outdoors this 
spring.

practically all summer, thus providing desir- 
able material for your summer requirements.
