6G3. Without exception, these are the most abundant 
bloomers of all the Carnation Pinks. The dowers are of 
brilliant colors, ranging through many beautiful shades of 
red, pink, white, variegated, etc.; they are of perfect form 
and large size. Those sown in spring commence flowering in 
early summer , and continue to bloom in lavish profusion 
until checked by frost. They can be potted and taken in the 
house and will* flower abundantly throughout the winter, 
though if intended specially for winter flowering, it will bo 
better to sow later in the season. The plants are compact 
and robust in habit, supporting themselves without the use 
of unsightly stakes. ISec cut.) Pkt., 10c.: 3 pkts., 25c.

some foliage. The stalls are very stiff, like wire, and the 
flowers large and ver>* double. The calyx rarely ever bursts, 
and the percentage of double flowers is very great, about 90 
per cent. Pkt., 25c.
