Chabaud's Giant Flowering (A) 



These creations of a French "Carnationist" surpass all the race in 

 richness and variety of coloring, and are surprisingly beautiful. Now 

 we have varieties flowering continuously after six months from 

 sowing. Plants upright, bearing double blossoms, all perfuming the 

 air with their sweetness. 



Seed should be sown in the spring in the greenhouse, hot-bed or 

 light window of dwelling house, in shallow boxes (2 inches deep) 

 of light soil, 'where the temperature will average 60 deg. When the 

 seedlings are 2 inches high, plant them in the open ground, where 

 they will form flowering clumps for the fall and winter. 



1740 Chabaud's Fancy. Mixed Colors. There is no other 

 strain of Carnations grown from seed that can compare to 

 these. Our mixture contains a fascinating array of delicate 

 tints and rich colors Per 500 seeds, 50c; pkt., 25c
