Sweet William (Dianthus barbalus) H.B. li ft. 



A well-known, attractive, free-flowering hardy perennial, producing 

 a splendid effect in beds and borders with their rich and varied flowers. 

 It is much better to raise new, vigorous young plants from seed every 

 season than to divide the old plants, as the flowers on the old plants 

 are apt to be smaller and more scattered. 



Boddington's Auricula-eyed. A remarkable strain of the popular 

 Sweet William with a distinct zone or eye. A great favorite with 

 all lovers of this well-known plant. ■pv.t Oz
