THE NEW H ARDY EVER-BLOOMING CARNATION, "CRIMSONIA ” 
# This we consider of the greatest value as a garden variety. It originated as a natural hybrid in a lot of Marguerite Carna¬ 
tions and has been tested for four years. It proved entirely hardy in northern New Jersey during that period. 
The flowers are full and double, finely fringed, borne in wonderful profusion on 
long, straight stems, remarkable for their wiry strength, surpassing the ordinary 
Carnation in that particular. The color is a deep, lustrous carmine-crimson very 
brilliant and showy. The habit of the plant is vigorous and branches freely; 
foliage and stems dark green and slightly pubescent. The flowers under ordinary 
cultivation and without disbudding will average from 1J to 2 inches across; in 
rich soil and when disbudded they will run one half to one inch larger. The 
fragrance is of the true carnation, strong and spicy. Brought indoors in the fall 
it blooms throughout the winter. This healthy, hardy, vigorous, free blooming, 
brilliantly colored Carnation will be a boon to those who want summer flowers.

The Fleecy^White Fragrant Clematis, CLEMATIS PANICULATA. 
This grand climbing vine, one of the most valuable ever sent to us from Japan— 
the source of so many floral wonders—is well worthy of a place on pretentious dwell¬ 
ing or humble cottage. Blooms in the early fall and is one mass of fleecy-white, 
fragrant flowers. These are succeeded by the silken seed vessels almost as orna¬ 
mental as the flowers. It will grow fifteen to twenty feet in a season, it is insect- 
proof, it is perfectly hardy, it adapts itself to all situations, thrives everywhere, 
and need only be seen to be admired. (See cut.) Price, strong 1 year plants,
