DARK PINK AND SALMON PINK VARIETIES 
DARK PINK PETER FISHER. (J/illustratcd on opposite page). One of the 
most valuable introductions in recent years, and a variety that is destined to 
become widely grown and standard in this color class. It is a true deep pink, 
almost exactly the same shade as Boston Ward. Its characteristics and growing 
habits are the same as those of Peter Fisher, from which it sported. We have 
a good supply of this variety, but the demand this season is certain to be greater 
than we can cope with. Therefore, we urge you to order this variety early. 
$10.00 per 100 $90.00 per 1000 
JOHN BRIRY. A new dark pink carnation of exceptional quality. The plants 
are very large and bushy. The stem is unusually long and strong. The variety 
does not split, and is an excellent keeper. The flowers are above average size, 
are symmetrical and of good substance. Production is not as high as that of 
many of the commercial varieties, but JOHN BRIRY will almost always command 
higher prices. 
$8.00 per 100 $70.00 per 1000 
DARK PINK MAYTIME. A deep pink sport of Maytime that has the same 
characteristics as the parent variety. The flowers are a little larger than those 
of Maytime or White Maytime, but have the same delightful form as the other 
Maytime varieties. There is no deep pink carnation that can surpass it in color, 
form, productiveness and general quality. It has the same habit of splitting and 
being slightly brittle at certain periods, but this is offset by its productiveness 
and the high percentage of perfect flowers over most of the season. If planted 
6x6, or not more than 6x7, it will consistently yield 40 blooms or more per 
square foot of bench. 
$7.00 per 100 $60.00 per 1000 
DIRIGO. A fine deep pink in the same color class with John Briry. The plants 
are large and bushy, the stem is very long and strong. Very little splitting occurs, 
and production is good. The flowers keep well. 
$7.00 per 100 $60.00 per 1000 
NEW DEAL WARD. This is a selected and improved Boston Ward. The color 
is slightly deeper than that of Boston Ward, and the plants are a little more 
vigorous. Otherwise the characteristics are the same as those of Boston Ward. 
It is widely grown, and is an important commercial deep pink. 
$6.00 per 100 $50.00 per 1000 
GIANT LADDIE. A deep salmon pink sport of Laddie with larger flowers and 
more vigorous growing habits. It is of show quality, and is ideal for the dis- 
criminating grower with a select trade. The flowers are gorgeous, and are car- 
ried on long, stiff stems. Production is good for such a large flower. 
$9.00 per 100 $80.00 per 1000 
ELEANOR. A light salmon pink of good quality. Flowers are of medium size, 
are symmetrical and have high, full centers. The plants are large and bushy and 
produce well. The flowers are good keepers. The color is much deeper than 
that of Mina Brenner, but not as deep as that of Giant Laddie. The stems are 
long and quite strong. It is a shade that sells well.
