EARLY LARGE-FLOWERED WINTER. 
We very highly recommend this class of Stocks to all who have 
not grown them. They were first brought into prominence 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 summer bedding if treated as 
ten-week varieties. .Sow in July and August for winter flowering, 
and in February and March for summer displays.
