MARGUERITE 
CARNATION. 
Many beautiful varieties 
of Carnations may be ob¬ 
tained from seed,equalling 
the greenhouse-grown blooms in full¬ 
ness and fragrance. These new fa¬ 
vorites are a great advance over the 
old varieties, as they will be in blos¬ 
som in from two to four months from 
seed sown in the open ground. The 
flowers appear in many shades of red, 
pink, white and variegated, and are 
exceedingly fragrant. If taken up 
and cut back they make fine plants 
for the window in winter, or seed may 
be sown at any time in pots for indoor 
blooming. . Some will come single, 
but even these are pretty. Fully 80 
per cent will come double. Many ex¬ 
press satisfaction regarding my Car¬ 
nation seed. Finest mixed. Pkt., 5c.

plants, so called from “ini-

but are just the thing for cool, 
shady beds or partly lighted 
win lows. Desirable for the 
garden or pot culture. 
Tlgrinus. Flowers highly 
colored and beautifully spot¬ 
ted, or “tigered,” in every 
conceivable manner. Espe¬ 
cially fine for pot plants.

Monkey Flower. 
MARGUERITE CENTAUREA. 
Although of recent introduction, this is now one of 
the “must haves.” It is a first cousin of the bachelor's 
Button, but really looks very little like it, the petals 
that edge the flower being much larger, more fluted 
and finely fringed and of a fine, satiny appearance, 
while the center is very fluffy and full. The flowers nre 
about the size of a large Carnation, grow on long, 
slender stems and nre splendid for culling. Easy of 
cultivation, blooming in July from seed sown in the 
open ground. Colors: pure white, pale yellow or lav¬ 
ender. Twelve to eighteen inches. Mixed. Pkt., 4 c.
