Double Annual Pinks 
LTER CO., NEW YORK CITY 
DIANTHUS (Pinks) 
In this large and greatly varied genus are some of our most beau¬ 
tiful and best-loved flowers, unsurpassed for color and fragrance. 
Mostly they are hardy biennials that bloom finely for the first season, 
remaining green all winter and blooming the next year also, if lightly 
protected. Seed may be sown in the open in early spring when the 
danger of frost is past, and if the situation is open and the ground is 
well prepared, they will flower luxuriantly in a few weeks’ time and 
continue until hard frost. They average i foot in height and are 
splendid for borders and for cutting.
