STOCK (GIANT). 



ABUNDANCE H.A. 



Excellent for a summer- or win- 

 ter-flowering variet}'. The extra- 

 ordinary growth of this variety is 

 caused by the central stem divid- 

 ing into twelve to fifteen lateral 

 branches which, in their turn, pro- 

 duce fifteen to twenty side shoots, 

 forming magnificent spikes of flow- 

 ers. Color, fine shade of carmine- 

 rose, similar to Queen Alexandra.

Large-flowering Pyramidal 

 Ten-Weeks. H.A. This fine nov- 

 elty Stock is of robust pyramidal 

 habit and reaches the height of 2'A 

 feet and even more, under good cul- 

 tivation. It is somewhat later than 

 the ordinary Ten Weeks varieties, 

 and usually starts into flower 

 when the former are through 

 blooming. This will be a fine addi- 

 tion to the Ten-Weeks Stock and 

 will prove a very useful cut-flower 

 variety, owing to length of stem.
