CARNATIONS. 



Carnations are universally planted and admired. They are so 

 easily grown in all parts of California, embrace such a diversity 

 of beautiful shades and colors, and have such a delightful fra- 

 grance, that no garden is complete without its bed or border of 

 carnations. 



Carnations will thrive in any good garden soil, the richer the 

 better, but fertilizers should never be brought in direct contact 

 with the plants. Long, straggly shoots or over-vigorous growths 

 should be stopped by pinching until a strong, bushy, symmetrical 

 plant is formed, when flower shoots may be allowed to grow; give 

 plenty of water when growing vigorously and when flowering.
