Hardy Carnations 
Giant Double 
Chabaud’s Improved 
This type of Giant Carna¬ 
tions surpasses other types 
of Carnations in large 
double and fringed flowers 
in beautiful shades which 
have a delightful clove-like 
fragrance. In appearance 
the large double flowers 
compare favorably with the 
greenhouse product, yet it 
is easily grown in the gar¬ 
den and blooms in about 
five months from Spring 
sown seed and continues 
until frost. The plants grow 
upright, 18 inches tall and 
form from 10 to 20 stalks 
producing quantities of 
large, well formed flowers, 
nicely fringed, about 90% 
of which are fully double. 
These are perennials but 
they will bloom from seed 
in less than 5 months from 
sowing if seed is planted 
in early Spring.
