New Double Calliopsis. 



Lydia A. Reed. Appleton. City, Mo., 

 March 7th. 1896. writes:— I have had 

 seeds from you for two or three years, 

 and must say I am more than pleased. 

 The seeds are good and true to name. 

 All did well and were the admiration of 

 all. Had 15 large beds of flowers and 

 many bouquets went to cheer the sick 

 and also to those that came to visit us.

Carnation, Marguerite. 



MARGUERITE CARNATIONS. 



This new class of fragrant Marguerite Carnations 

 will bloom in about four months after sowing the 

 seed. The flowers are of brilliant colors, ranging 

 through many beautiful shades of reds, pinks, white, 

 variegated, etc., exquisitely sweet and fully 80 per cent, 

 perfectly double. The plants succeed alike in the open 

 garden or in pots. Seeds sown early in the year will 

 give an abundance of flowers in July. Sown in May 

 and kept pinched back, you will have fine flowers late 

 in the fall until checked by hard frosts. Sown in the 

 autumn, the flowers will be in full bloom early in the 

 spring. Thus, by planting at different seasons, flowers 

 can be had all the year around. Pkt., 50 seeds, 4 cts.
