DIANTHUS 
Per pkt. 
No. 564. Carter’s Large-flowered Dwarf Single Dianthus. 6 to 8 inches -16 
Dianthus Chinensis ( Indian Pink). Biennial. We consider the Heddiwigi section of the Dianthus 
introduced by our house from the East, and the parent of many of the best types, to be one of the 
finest additions to our annual flora for the last fifty years, and the varieties detailed on the next 
page are the improved results from the original importation. Sow in spring in boxes or pots, and 
transplant to where intended to bloom. Seeds of all the improved types may be also sown at the 
end of summer, and grown on in pots through the winter under fairly cool treatment. They will 
make robust plants at the end of spring, and become useful in the decoration of the conservatory.
