PINKS OR DIANTHUS 
A magnificent genus, embracing some of the most 
popular flowers in cultivation, producing a great 
variety of brilliant colors and profusion of bloom. The 
varieties classed as annuals are really biennials, but 
are treated as annuals and may be sown out of doors 
when the danger from frost is past, and in a few 
weeks’ time they are a mass of bloom, continuing so 
until after hard frost. As a rule, they survive the 
winter if given slight protection, flowering abundantly 
the following season. They grow about a foot high, 
and can be used in beds or borders of solid or mixed 
colors. The double flowering sorts are almost as fine 
as carnations for cutting. They are not particular as 
to soil, but should have a sunny location.
