| ENGLISH GIANTS. 
The best type of Carnation we have 
seen for the gardener who appreciates 
superior size and quality and is will- 
ing to give his planting a little extra 
attention to obtain the best. If well 
grown and the secondary buds are re- 
moved from under the main bloom, the 
gardener will obtain blooms comparable 
to the finest greenhouse grown Carna- 
tions. The flowers will attain 4 in.

on long stems. The colors embrace 
every Carnation color. We recommend
