Large Flowering French. 
Handsome plants for centers of 
large beds or back ribbons for bor- 
der, as winter flowering plants in 
pots they are also of great value. 
The foliage is luxuriant and the 
plants are dwarf in habit: The 
flowers are of immense size and 
of very brilliant colors, ranging 
through all the shades of yellow to 
the richest crimson, searlet and 
vermilion. Many are beautifully 
spotted. By soaking the Seeds for 
about twelve hours in warm water 
previous to sowing in a hot-bed or 
greenhouse early in the season, 
they can be had in flower by the 
end of July.

“Chabaud’s” new strain of 
Carnations are surpassingly beautiful 
in form and coloring. The old style 
Perpetuals flowered only once a year, 
and that at 15 months from sowing. 
With this new strain one can have 
“Fancy Pinks” in 6 months from sow- 
ing. The flowers are enormous, of 
great substance and sweetness, and 
continue flowering indefinitely. This is 
just the Carnation for house culture 
during fall and winter.......

HARDY GARDEN CARNATIONS. 
For early flowering sow in May outdoors, 
transplanting when large enough. By fall 
they will make thrifty clumps which will 
give large quantities of delightful carna- 
tions early the following summer. They are 
perfectly hardy, only requiring a slight Cov- 
ering during winter. The Perennial Pinks, 
page 73, can also be treated in this manner.
