Centaurea Marguerite. 
The most fragrant and longest keeping cut flower. One of the 
most valuable introductions of late years, the flowers are the 
of a medium Carnation, freely produced on long stems, which 
renders them valuable for cutting; color pure white, pale sulphur- 
yellow' and lavender. The flowers are sweet-scented, and their 
fasting quality after being cut is remarkable. The p ants grow 
about eighteen inches high and are of the easiest culture, from 
spring-sown seed they commence to flower in July and continue 
until late in the autumn. The novelty is entirely distinct from all 
other Ceutaureas, and undoubtedly the most beautiful variety 
known. Mixed colors. Pkt.. 100 seeds. 5 cts.
