DIANTHUS ROSE DAWN 
(Dianthus neglectus compacta glauca) 
(2) (See picture No. 2 at right). This flower is pretty 
right from the word go. First it appears as a little cushion 
all soft and fuzzy like the back of a furry kitten. Then in 
May flower buds appear—hundreds of them—on short, 
straight stems that bristle out like the quills of a frightened 
porcupine. And then in late May and June blooms appear, 
like a beautiful miniature fireworks display, like hundreds of 
tiny rockets all exploding at once. Blooms similar to Maiden

across, 3 or 4 inches tall. Fine for border or rockery. Thrives 
in ordinary soil. Plant 10 to 12 inches apart. PRICES: 40c 
each; 2 for 69c; 4 for 98c; 12 for $3.50.

Sun-Rose and it’s a dandy. Instead of being single like the old Sun-Rose, petals are

little yellow centers. Foliage creeps very low and makes a pretty dark green carpet.
