These flower profusely in summer and autumn from seeds own in the spring. The 

 flowers of this wonderful strain often measure 3 inches across, and are usually as double as 

 double can be. The variety of colors includes white, blush, deep pink, salmon, carmine, 

 scarlet, dark crimson, maroon and many beautiful variegated flowers. Most of them 

 have lovely fringed petals, and are delightfully fragrant. One great merit of these Carna- 

 tions is that they commence to flower in about twelve weeks' time from seed. Seed sown 

 in the spring will produce luxuriant plants that will be continually full of bloom from 

 August until killed by severe frosts, or seeds may be sown during the summer for the 

 T.-inter-flowering plants,
