4660 Carters Perfection. — A giant red-flowered variety with a 
delicious scent. This fine strain is a very great improvement, 
and owing to its robust habit the seedlings require plenty of 
room, when they will make bushy plants resembling Interme- 
diate Stocks. The spikes of bloom are larger than any other 
variety, and the habit much less straggling. If the seed-pods 
are kept pinched off, the beauty of the plant will extend ovei a 
long period, and with care in this respect will continue until cut 
down by frost.
