carters’ dianthus, crimson rei.le. 
Dianthus Chinensis (Indian Pink). — We are 
inclined to assert that there is no tribe of hardy flowers 
more generally known and admired than the “Pink” 
tribe. We consider the Heddewigi section introduced 
by our house from the East, and the parent of many of 
the best types, to be the finest addition to our annual 
flora for the last fifty years, and the varieties detailed 
below are the improved results from the original 
importation. Sow in spring in boxes or pots, and 
transplant to where intended to bloom.
