CARNATION 
PLANTS 
This group has been extremely popular with our trade 
for many years and they are well adapted to hardy gar- 
den culture within the limitations mentioned. More 
hardy than greenhouse Carnations and more satisfactory. 
Although somewhat smaller they are spice scented and 
very desirable. Grown from seed we have rogued them 
to color and doubleness as closely as we can. They are, 
however, subject to some drift in doubleness under vary- 
ing situations and there may be a few off colors we 
have not been able to get because the plant had not 
bloomed, All are strong year old stock.
