SWEET WILLIAM, Dianthus Barbatus, showing freedom of bloom. 
Sweet <UftKam, 
EAR to the hearts of many a flower-lover, the literature of the old-time gardens teems 
with pleasant references to this splendid plant. Perfectly hardy and easily grown, its 
brilliant flowers lasting for many weeks. It can be used freely to advantage in many 
garden scenes. The plants form clumps of bright evergreen foliage which is desirable in the 
flower border, making them important even when not in flower. We have at the Nursery 
a fine lot of large stocky plants which are ready to give an abundant display of bloom this 
season. This stock is all grown from plants here at the Nursery which have been selected 
for their brilliancy of color and fine form. By using these plants definite color effects can 
be depended on. 
Auricula. White with a beautiful splashing of the deepest velvety crimson forming a band 
around the center of each flower. 
Emperor William. The most intense velvety crimson red imaginable. . . m 
Peach Blow. A most delicate clear pink suggesting a shading of sulphur, it is so free trom 
any magenta in its effect.
