an arbor or veranda, and for perfect hardiness cannot be excelled.

NEW HARDY PINK, HER MAJESTY. 
The Carnation of late has become the most popular cut flower 
with the exception of the Rose, and the one drawback toits cul- 
tivation by the masses of flower lovers is the fact that it is not 
quite hardy. I have at last a perfect substitute for it in this 
grand and new hardy Fink, one of the finest novelties of the 
century. Itis quite hardy, needs no protection, and blooms pro- 
fusely in the month of May and June. The flowers are pure 
white in color, very double, borne on long, stiff stems, and pos- 
sessing the exquisite clove-scented fragrance of the true Carna- 
ions, while it rivals them in size and substance. It is a wonder- 
1 bloomer, producing immense masses of flowers. You will be 
delighted with it. Price, 10 cents each, |
