COLLECTIONS OF OHOICE 
CARNATION AND PICOTEE SEEDS. 
Saved in the following classes by “ Oub Sardinian Correspondent/’ 
From one of tbe finest collections in Europe, yielding a large percentage of double flowers. 
Carnations and Picotees are prized for their delicious fragrance and exquisite beauty. As cut flowers, they 
are indispensable for furnishing flirwer-baskets and drawing-room bouquets, and for this purpose a reserve piece 
of ground should be devoted to their cultivation. Seedlings flower more profusely than propagated plants, there" 
fore we recommend the following collections saved from the classes noted. No reliance, however, can be placed 
upon the specific colours being reproduced.
