THE DINO-BE & CONARD OO.'S 



DI ANTHUS PINKS 



Few flowers can equal Dianthus in variety and 

 brilliancy of color, blooming all Summer and 

 Fall until prevented by severe frost. They live 

 over Winter, and give satisfaction and 

 pleasure the second season. The plants 

 are of the easiest cultivation, and should 

 be planted in quantities by all. We recom- 

 mend the list of distinct varieties below 

 as the best ever offered ; they grow 10 to 

 15 inches, and, as is well known, cannot 

 be surpassed for edging or bedding. 



Any b varieties for 25 cts.; any 12 for 

 40 cts.; set of 20, 75 cts.
