Dwarf Wall Flower Leaved. 



No. 6608. In habit this Stock closely resembles 

 the Dwarf Pyramidal ; it produces a vigorous main 



spike of uncommonly large and very double snow- 

 white flowers and, when fully developed, numerous 

 flowering side-shoots. Its glossy dark green foliage 

 renders the dazzling whiteness of the flowers more 

 conspicuous. It is one of the earliest of the Ten

 Seed produces about 60 per cent, of double flowers.
