The range of colour has now been considerably extended, the lilac, rose, cardinal, and carmine being particularly charming. Sow in spring in 
ordinary soil. For pot work, sow in pots in frame, and thin out the seedlings, or they may be transplanted. Average ht., 1 ft.

CARNATION AND PICOTEE. 
Hints on Culture . — A popular and lovely flower, always in fashion. In colour and form unique, with a pleasing fragrance in many types. 
Whether grown in pots for conservatory decoration or in the garden beds for summer display, its charms are equally attractive. Our seed is saved 
with the greatest care, and should produce a large percentage of the very best flowers, but unfortunately, as with other florists’ flowers, it cannot 
be guaranteed that every one will come double. Care should be taken to preserve the smallest seedlings, as these frequently produce the finest 
quality blooms. Sow in spring in cold frame, prick out, and plant out in good soil when strong enough, for flowering the following season.

Hints on Culture . — Carnations are favourites with all lovers of flowers. This strain will bring them within the reach and the cultivation 
of everybody, as it is one of the most valuable introductions of modern times. Sow under glass in January and February, and transplant as soon 
as ready. They commence to flower in July, producing a wealth of large bloom of great variety of colour until cut off by the frost, thus producing 
a supply after the perennial varieties are over. Being equally valuable for indoor cultivation, some can be potted and placed in a cool greenhouse, 
when they provide a succession of bloom during the winter months. They can also be sown in June to flower the following year. They produce 
a very large percentage of double flowers, and include a most varied assortment of fancy, yellow ground, bizarre, as well as seifs, rich with 
delightful fragrance and diversity of colour.
