DIANTHUS—Pinks 
Hardy Perennial 
Pinks comprise a large number of valuable plants 
for the rockery, wall garden or border. We have formed 
what we consider a very representative collection of 
Pinks. The majority are of easy culture and where any 
special treatment is necessary, we have made mention 
of the fact. 
All Pinks should have plenty of sun, unless other¬ 
wise mentioned, and the majority may be divided after 
flowering. 
D. alpinus (Alpine Pink)— -This is one of the loveliest 
of all rockery Pinks, with glossy leaves and large 
flowers of brilliant rose, produced during June and 
July. It thrives best in loam with some lime added 
and perhaps a little shade during the hottest part of 
the summer. A gem for the rock garden; 6 in.....$ .50

Flowers white with a carmine ring, deeply fringed

leaves from which, in May, spring the sweet-smelling, 
rose-colored flowers, each on its own stem. It varies 
as much as from four inches to ten inches in height. 
It is easily grown and very fine for the wall or rock 
garden; G in.; true.... .50
