DIANTHUS OR PINKS 



A magnificent genus, embracing some of the most popular 

 flowers in cultivation, producang a great variety of brilliant 

 colors and profusion of bloom. The varieties classed as an- 

 nuals are really biennials, but are treated as annuals and may 

 be sown out of doors when the danger from frost is past, and 

 j'n a few weeks' time they are a mass of bloom, continuing so 

 until after hard frost. As a rule, they survive the winter if 

 given slight protection, flowering abundantly the following sea- 

 son. They grow about a foot high and can be used in beds or 

 borders of solid or mixed colors. The double flowering sorts 

 are almost as fine as carnations for cutting. They are not par- 

 ticular as to soil, but should have a sunny location.
