GIANT-FLOWERING MARGUERITE 



Carnation Seed. 



These gorgeous and fragrant garden Carnations 

 flower profusely summer and autumn, from 

 seeds sown in the t 1 "'"?" — ^ 



THE flowers of this wonderful strain often measure 3 inches 

 across, and are usually as double as double can be. The 

 variety of color includes white, blush, deep pink, salmon, 

 carmine, scarlet, dark crimson, maroon, and many beauti- 

 fully variegated flowers. Most of them have beautifully fring- 

 ed petals, and are delightfully fragrant. One great merit of 

 these Carnations is that they commence to flower in about 

 twelve weeks' time from seed. Seeds sown in the spring will 

 produce luxuriant plants that will be continually full of 

 bloom from August until killed by severe frosts, or seeds may 

 be sown during the summer for the winter-flowering plants.

 "I raised S3 plants of the Giant Marguerite Carnations from 

 one packet of your seed. No two were alike. Nearly all were 

 very large and double, with colors I had never seen before in a 

 Pink." IDA M. DAVENPORT, E. Brimfield, Mass. 



Chabaud' s Giant Fancy 

 PerpetuahFIowering Carnations 



THESE latest and best creations of Mons. B. Chabaud. 

 the famous French "Carnationist," surpass all the 

 race in richness and variety of coloring, the combinations 

 of which are surprisingly beautiful. Heretofore this grand 

 type of Carnations only flowered once a year— 15 to 18 

 months after sowing — but now we have Fancy Pinks, with 

 all of the qualities of the old Perpetual Carnation, flowering 

 continuously after 6 months from sowing. Plants thick- 

 set and bushy; stalks stiff and upright, bearing immense 

 double blossoms of perfect, regularity, some with fringed 

 edges, some smooth, some with rich, solid colors, others 

 tinted and blended, and others with featherings and picotee 

 markings, and all perfuming the air with their sweetness, 

 of incontestable merit for winter flowering and hardy enough 

 for garden culture. (See cut.)

Henderson's Hardy Garden Carnation Seed. 



THIS is a very fine strain, particularly adapted to garden planting. Seed sown in the spring 

 will produce large, thrifty clumps that will stand out over winter and bloom throughout 

 the following summer and fall. All colors, shades and markings are represented in the 

 mixture and most of them will come double. Mixed Colors Pkt. 10c. 



"Your hardy Carnation seeds surpass all others that I have seen. The flcwers are immense, most 

 of them perfectly double and all sweetly fragrant." Miss R. A. MOORE, Deep River, Conn.

 shaded with orange, flowering in profusion for a long 

 period during the summer; unequaled for cutting; grows 

 anywhere. (Sec cut.) Pkt. 10c.

 3 inches and over in diameter, and are borne on

 flower the same season from seed sown early; compact, 

 bushy plants — about 2 feet high — blooming abundantly 

 during the summer and fall Pkt. 15c.
