Yoder's Yew Carnation Cuttings for 32 
The “Trialing : Has Been Done For You 
Here at our West Chicago greenhouses and in other greenhouses all over 
the country trials of these new Yoder Carnations have proved conclu- 
sively that they are far superior to standard commercial varieties. When 
you order these Carnations, you needn‘t consider it an experiment— 
it’s good business. Midas (above) is an excellent yellow.

WHITE 
Jupiter. A large, strong stemmed white. Well received in the 
Middle West. 
Aurora. Another exceptionally large, white flower. Does well 
in late spring and early fall. A promising variety for the’ 
West and South. 
Adonis. A winter white. Satisfactory flower quality and good 
production. This variety is competition for Olivette. 
PINK 
Apollo. An outstanding salmon pink, larger than Netta. A 
good summer flower, well suited to all areas of the country. 
Should become the foremost salmon pink variety grown. 
Aphrodite. A clear light pink; outside petals bleach a little in 
late spring and early fall, but do not burn. A good, early 
producer with an early comeback, it is at its best in areas of 
relatively high light intensity. 
Diana. Light pink; a good producer. 
Venus. A show variety. Extra large, beautiful, long stemmed, 
salmon pink flower. 
ROSE 
Minerva. An unusual deep scarlet pink. Reported as a good 
summer flower—fades in very high light intensity, but fades 
uniformly with no white edge. Heavy break-back; fine 
keeper.

We’re happy to announce the introduction of 
these new Carnations—the greatest advancement 
in Carnation culture to date. 
These are the first of a series of Carnations de- 
veloped by Yoder Bros. of Barberton, Ohio from dis- 
ease-free seedling strains. They are not disease- 
resistant, but they are as free of disease as you can 
get Carnation stock; and given the same care you 
would give ordinary commercial Carnation varieties, 
they will give you more quality flowers—more dol- 
lars per square foot of bench space than the regular 
varieties. 
You can feel completely free to order these Car- 
nations in quantity as they have been flowered in 
our own greenhouses and have proved their su- 
periority over standard varieties. But if you’re not 
convinced that these are the best buy in Carna- 
tions, try some alongside your standard varieties for 
comparison. 
The demand for these varieties has been heavy 
—dget your order in now to be sure of the quantities 
and varieties you want. Shipped January thru April 
1952. F.O.B. Barberton, Ohio. Minimum order, 50 
cuttings of a variety. 
RED-SCARLET 
Ceres. Because of its beautiful King Cardinal color and its 
exceptionally high production, this variety is being made 
available in 1952. Early, with heavy comeback. 
Neptune. Scarlet (color resembles that of Wm. Sim); a free 
breaker, fine stretch. A very satisfactory variety. 
MAROON 
Vulcan. A fine flower. Excellent keeper, good comeback. Best 
maroon. Should supersede all varieties now available in this 
color class. 
YELLOW 
Midas. A good yellow Carnation. Production very satisfactory. 
Where Miller’s Yellow is a problem, this variety is strongly 
recommended. 
VARIEGATED 
Orion. Color resembles that of Glowing Ember. An excellent 
grower and producer. 
Saturn. A beautiful warm bronze variegated; excellent under 
BAe light. Promises to become a very popular novelty 
color.
