Marguerite Carnation. 
MARGUERITE CARNATIONS. 
This new class of fragrant Marguerite Carna- 
tions will bloom in about four months after 
sowing: the seed. The flowers are of brilliant 
colors, ranging through many beautiful shades 
of reds, pinks, white, variegated, etc., exquisitely 
sweet and fully 80 per cent, perfectly double. 
The plants succeed alike in the open garden or 
in pots. Seeds sown early in the year will give 
an abundance of flowers in July. Sown in May 
and kept pinched back, you will have fine 
flowers late in the fall until checked by hard 
frosts. Sown in the autumn, the flowers will be 
in full bloom early in the spring. Thus, by 
planting at different seasons flowers can be had 
all the year around. Pkt., 50 seeds, 6 cents. 
Mrs. D. G. Edwards. 206 Point St., Providence, R. I., 
March, 1895, writes: — I nave used your seeds ever since you 
began to sell them, and they are always good. 
Indispensable plants for 
both pot culture in the 
greenhouse, window garden 
and open ground culture in 
summer; of innumerable 
colors and delicious per- 
fume. The plants may be 
set in the open ground dur- 
ing the summer, where they 
will flower as profusely as 
when grown in pots in the 
house. Half hardy peren- 
nials.

Mrs. Ellen Zimmerman, 891 
Fairview St., Pottsville, Pa., Mch. 
23, 1895, writes: Your seeds of last 
year turned out to be a great suc- 
cess, both in germination and 
flowering. The Carnations

ent has 16 buds, 9 of which are 
open. 
Mrs. H. P. Degler, South Su- 
perior, Wis., writes: I huve used 
your seeds for two years and hnd 
splendid success. My Primroses 
are in blossom from seeds sown 
this spring, and my Cineraria will 
blossom soon. 
NEW CENTAUREA MARGUERITE. 
One of the most valuable introductions of late 
years. The flowers are the size of a medium 
Carnation, freely produced on long stems, which 
renders them valuable for cutting; color pure 
white, pale sulphur yellow and lavender. Tho 
flowers are sweet scented, and their lasting 
quality after being cut is remarkable. The 
plants grow about 18 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. This novelty is entirely dis- 
tinct from all otlierCentaureasand undoubtedly 
the most beautiful variety known. Pkt,, 30 
seeds, O cents. 
Mrs. G. H. Norris, Woodcock, Pa., March 28, ’95, writes: 
I have been very much pleased witli the flower seeds re- 
ceived from you. My Cinerarias ore in lull bloom now 
and very beuutiful.
