The Malmaison Carnations can be classed with 

 the Tree or perpetual types, but they do not form 

 such a good winter-flowering section as those just 

 named. They may be best described as a spring 

 and early summer blooming group. There are now 

 several varieties classed under the head of Mal- 

 maison Carnations. Madame Arthur AVarocque, 

 BriUiant Scarlet Crimson, is a very fine variety and 

 the most persistent flowerer. The Malmaison Car- 

 nations can be propagated similarly to the winter 

 flowering section.
