 ing of strong growth, healthy and deep- 

 rooting. The average spikes of flowers 

 are immense, measuring 6 to 8 inches 

 long by 2 'A inches in diameter, and are 

 compactly filled with giant florets, 

 measuring Yt inch across and packed 

 full, even in the center, with anthers, 

 or three times as many as the older 

 Mignonettes contain, consequently 

 this variety is correctly called a double 

 Mignonette. The color of the florets — 

 fire-red — is strengthened on account of 

 the density of the florets and spikes, 

 thus presenting almost solid columns 

 of brilliant-red. effectively contrasted 

 against the healthy, rich green foliage, 

 rhe fragrance is delightfully rich and 

 )Owerful. For cutting it is perfection, 

 remaining fresh for 8 to 10 days in
