Early Large-Flowered Winter Varieties 
We very highly recommend this class of Stocks to all who have not grown them. They were first brought into promi- 
nence by the advent of that charming pink variety Beauty of Nice. 
The following varieties all resemble this variety in habit and profusion of bloom. We know of few Stocks which produce 
such a high percentage of double flowers. Although usually treated as winter varieties, they are admirably suited for sum- 
mer bedding if treated as ten-week varieties. 
Sow in July and August for winter flowering, and in February and March for summer displays. 
No. 1223. Beauty of Nice. — Plant of robust growth, 2 to 2J^ feet. Very free flowering. Flowers very large, fine 
double, fragrant, and delicate fleshy-pink colour. Extremely valuable for decorative work . . .15 and .26

“ 1513. Queen Alexandra. - — Delicate rosy lilac 26 
Carter’s New Perpetual White Stock
