DIANTHUS, LACINIATUS SPLENDENS 
Free flowering and easily grown, the Dianthus 
family has for years furnished us with some of our 
most popular border subjects. One of the recent addi- 
tions to this family is the sterling novelty Laciniatus 
Splendens, a variety which, in our opinion, is the 
most striking Dianthus we have ever offered. The 
flowers are very large, over 2 inches across, in a 
brilliant shade of crimson, with a large, boldly con- 
trasting, glistening white eye. _-_---------- Pkt. 15¢ 
EVERLASTING FLOWERS 
The seeds of all the varieties may be sown out- 
doors early in spring, with the exception of Gomph- 
rena, which sometimes does not germinate well in the 
open ground, and it is best to sow it indoors and 
transplant. For winter bouquets, the flowers should 
be cut before they are fully open, tied in bunches and 
suspended with the heads down, to keep the stems 
straight.
