Carnation Marguerite. 



Without exception these are the most abundant 

 bloomers of all the Carnation Pinks. The flowers are of 

 brilliant colors, ranging through many beautiful shades 

 of red, pink, white, variegated, etc.; they are of perfect 

 form and large size. Those sow7i in spring commence 

 flowering in early summer, and continue to bloom in 

 lavish profusion until checked by frost. They can be 

 pitted and taken in the house and will flower abund- 

 antly throughout the winter, though if intended specially 

 for winter flowering, it will be better to sow later in the 

 season. The plants are compact and robust in habit, 

 supporting themselves without the use of unsightly 

 stakes. (See cut.) Pkt., lOe.; 3 pkts., 25e. 



664. C. Finest Double Striped. Pkt., 10c. 



New Qillaud Pinks. 



The only strain of Pinks blooming the 

 first season that contains yellow. 



665. This new race originated with M. Gillaud, a 

 celebrated French specialist, and, like the Dianthua 

 MargaritEB, they contain considerable carnation blood, 

 and yet po.ssess all of the profuse and early blooming 

 qualities of the annual Dianthus. 



The Gillaud Pinks bloom profusely in the summer 

 and autumn from spring-sown seed. The flowers are 

 very large, of perfect shape, very fragrant, and last a 

 longer time, either cut or on the plant, than Carnation 

 Marguerite, and making this strain still more valuable. 

 They contain flowers of clear yellow and others with 

 yellow stripes. The seeds which we offer in mixture 

 contain a magnificent variety of colors and shades. Pkt..
