Dianthus plumarius, Little Jock Hybrids 
Dianthus plumarius. Little Jock Hybrids 
HARDY 
A new and rare gem foi; the rock-garden. Not more 
than 6 to 8 inches high, the compact plants produce 
a multitude of prettily fringed flowers about 1 inch 
across, in varied tints of pink, rose, and white, mostly 
with a deep center zone; about 50 per cent of them are 
double. Pkt. 75 cts., 3 pkts. $2. 
Dianthus deltoides erecta 
A bright, erect, compact-growing Maiden’s Pink 
that is most valuable for rockeries, stone walls, etc. 
Forms compact, sturdy bushes full of flowers, with 
none of the straggly appearance characteristic of this 
type. Seed can be sown any time of the year—during 
the winter months in heat, otherwise outdoors or in 
coldframe. Sown indoors from January to April will 
produce flowering plants the same year. Pkt. 75 cts., 
3 pkts. $2. 
Doronicum Pardalianches, Bunch of Gold 
The New Livingstone Daisy 
Mesembryanthemum criniflorum 
An easily grown annual of great charm; an ideal carpet or 
rockery plant and a gem for edging. The plants are of slightly 
spreading habit and literally covered with flowers measuring 
about an inch across, in the most delightful shades imagin¬ 
able. There are pure whites, tinted and edged with rose, 
crimson, pink, and buff; self-colors including primrose, 
gold, buff, apricot, crimson, and pink. On account of their 
low growth, they are also admirably adapted for planting 
between stepping stones and in crevices of crazy paving and 
on old walls. Thrives well in poor soil. Pkt. 35 cts., 3 pkts $1. 
Dianthus, Loveliness 
Doronicum 
Pardalianches, 
Bunch of Gold 
Unlike the other Dor- 
onicums in commerce, this 
new variety does not 
bloom until late May and 
June. It produces a mass 
of bright canary-yellow, 
long-stalked, Marguerite 
or Daisy-like flowers, and 
grows in large clumps 24 
to 32 inches tall. These 
long-stemmed yellow 
Daisies are particularly 
fine for cutting, and make 
a great showing in the 
perennial border. An in¬ 
teresting trait is the pro¬ 
duction of flowers in the 
axil of each leaf up the 
stem. Pkt. $1, 6 pkts. $5. 
Dianthus, Loveliness 
A new hybrid, and an 
epoch-making novelty 
which will find enthusi¬ 
astic admirers every¬ 
where. The flowers have 
large, lacerated petals of 
a most unique mauve tint, 
but most delightful of all 
is its gorgeous bouquet— 
the most alluringly per¬ 
fumed flowers known in 
Dianthus. For its scent 
alone it will delight garden 
lovers everywhere. This 
glorious novelty will warm 
the hearts of hostesses 
looking for a different cut- 
flower for the table, its 
lacy frilly flowers looking 
like nothing else in the 
plant world. Pkt. (20
