‘Supreme Quality 
Dianthus 
Sweet Wivelslield. A new, hardy annual of wonderful colorings. 
The flowers are larger than Sweet William and borne in trusses. 
This perpetual flowering Dianthus is bound to win instant favor 
both as a cutflower of lasting quality and as a new sprinq bedding 
plant. Tr. Pkt.15c Vi oz.25c Oz.80c 
New Double Sweet Wivelslield 
A sensational plant—a great improvement on the original Sweet 
Wivelsfield, which proved such an enormous success when sent out 
by us some four years ago. 
Double Sweet Wivelsfield is a bold, full flower of widely varying 
shades of color, from scarlet to pink. The flowers last much longer 
in the beds and also as a cutflower it is very worthwhile.

Exacum (Affine) 
Provides a most useful pot plant. Numerous small light mauve 
flowers with golden yellow stamens contrast wonderfully with the 
light green leaves. Seed sown in January or February flower in 
June and continue uninterruptedly until the autumn. To obtain 
the best results, plant two plants in each pot. Rich soil of leaf mould 
and turfy loam in equal parts, with some sand added, is most 
suitable for its cultivation, which from the end of March must be 
carried out either in a cold frame or a well ventilated greenhouse, 
with the minimum of shade. Exacum Affine is a fragrant and 
charming indoor plant. As a cheap market plant, it is worthy of 
notice. Tr. Pkt.50c
