367 -Margaret Carnation. Mixed. {See cut.) {A carnation that blooms the first year 
from seed.) The plants of this new class of carnations are dwarf and com¬ 
pact, branching closely above the ground, and do not require support. 
Flighty per cent of the flowers are very double, of brilliant colors, ranging 
through many beautiful shades of reds, pinks, white, variegations, etc. They 
are deliciously fragrant, and the calyx never bursts. But of the greatest im¬ 
portance is the fact that the seedlings bloom when only four months old, and 
flowers can be had all summer and winter, if some consecutive sowings are 
made . 
368 -- Rose. 
369 -White. 
370 -New 66 Guillaud,” Mixed. The only strain of pinks blooming the first sea¬ 
son that contains yellow. This new race, like the Margaret, contains consid¬ 
erable Carnation blood, and yet possesses all the profusion and eai’ly-bloom- 
ing qualities of the annual Dianthus. Flowers are very large, of perfect 
shape, very fragrant, and last a long time either cut or on the plants, and, 
making this strain still more valuable, they contain flowers of clear yellow 
and others with yellow stripes. Equally adapted for open ground and pot 
culture...
