Maiden Blush 
Moon Mist 
We're afraid we're going to find Moon Mist Carnation 
very difficult to describe; its whiteness, the shades of pink, 
and hints of fairy gold, and its general over-all beauty. We 
tried a picture, but fiat doesn’ t do, because—well, just because 
it doesn’t. And we've tried words, ‘but can’t find the right ones, 
and are now sure they don’t even exist. All we can say is that 
the picture does show the form, but the whiteness, beauty of 
texture, fragrance, and other qualities—well, you'll just have 
to try it yourself and see. Why don’t you? The plants are 
hardy and easy to grow and when you have them in your gar- 
den, you can see and feel and smell for yourself. Blooms appear 
and open a dozen or more at a time, nice large, 2-inch ones, 
and continue until frost. Field-grown plants, 1 for 75c; 2 for 
$1.22; 3 for $1.69; 4 for $2.16; 6 for $3.09.

Maiden Blush (Plant Patent Applied for) 
For years we have been watching for a flower 
that would merit the name Maiden Blush, and 
now we have found it. 
The color of Maiden Blush Carnation is beau 
tiful clear pink, but it shades and fades from 
light to dark and almost white with a fascinating 
blushing effect. The picture shows the beautiful 
and unusual form of the petals. 
Like all our other hardy Carnations, Maiden 
Blush produces an abundance of blooms: 30 to 40 
open on a plant at once. It will give you hun- 
dreds of blooms in a season if properly picked. 
Fragrance mild and sweet. Healthy, vigorous, 
upright, hardy. Lives through sub-zero winters. 
PRICES: Field-grown plants, 1 for 75c; 2 for 
$1.22; 3 for $1.69; 4 for $2.16; 6 for $3.09.
