Types of Pinks (Dianthus) 
DIANTHUS (Pinks) 
In this lai-ge and greatly varied genus are some 
of our most beautiful and best-loved flowers, un- 
surpassed for color and fragrance. They are 
hardy biennials that bloom finely the first season, 
remaining green all winter and blooming the 
next year also, if lightly protected. Old plants 
flower the earliest, but as young ones give the 
largest, finest flowers, sowings are made every 
year. Seed can be sown under glass in the spring, 
or in an open, sheltered bed. The seedlings are 
easily transplanted and should stand 8 to 12 
inches apart; dwarf ones about 6 inches. If es- 
pecially large, brilliant flowers are desired, a bed 
of well-mixed turfy loam, leaf-mold and well- 
decayed manure should be prepared for them.
