DIANTHUS, ROYAL PINK. 
Royal Pinks. 
A New and Improved Single Dianthus. 
This magnificent improvement 
on Dianthus Heddewigii has been 
given the name of Heddewigii 
Nobilis—the noble or royal Hedde- 
wigii, and the group well deserves 
the name of Royal Pinks. It is 
derived from selected forms of the 
popular single-flowering Japan 
pinks, producing blossoms of a 
new shape, the petals being curled, 
waved and twisted, each covering 
half of another, and all beauti- 
fully fringed. The colors vary 
from white to intense red. The 
flowers are from 2 to 4 inches 
across, with large eyes, and are 
exceedingly showy and satisfac- 
tory. The piants are a foot or 
more in height and are unsur- 
assed for bedding purposes. 
othing among the annual, sin- 
gle-flowered pinks can excel this , 
new and lovely strain. Packet, ~

New MexicaAN HYBRID ZINNIAS, 
MEXICAN HYBRID ZINNIAS. A New Group of Little Beauties. 
It gives me pleasure to offer my friends something peculiarly fresh, 
novel and attractive in the way of zinnias. These new dwarfs are daz- 
zling in their beauty and charming in their variety. They grow only 
about 6 inches high, yet their flowers are large and showy. The range 
of color is almost without limit, embracing shades of yellow, orange, 
red, pink, white, brown, terra cotta, etc.; and the flowers show wide 
variation, sometimes even on the same plant. In one case the blooms 
are daisy-like, with flat, extended petals, tipped or ringed with a con- 
trasting color. On another plant the blooms are perfectly double, either 
flattened or globular in form, and of one or several colors. The flower- 
ing habit is remarkably profuse, and they are especially suited to edges 
and borders. They have been much admired at Panmure.
