Dianthus Laciniatus Splendens 
Special Mention ' ,ALL~AMERICA ' ^ ! StLf CTIONS7 1935 
S PLENDENS is the most striking Dianthus we have ever offered. Although 
it has been on the market in this country for some four years now, popular 
demand still keeps it in the active novelty class. It is neat, compact in habit, 
growing 6 to 8 inches in height and produces hundreds of its showy flowers 
throughout the season. There are dozens of flowers in bloom at a time on each 
of the little mound-like plants which remain in full flower throughout most of 
the summer months. The strongly sweet scented single flowers are large, about 
2 inches in diameter, brilliant crimson with a vividly contrasting large white 
eye. A very showy plant, it has but few equals for edging or border use, or 
as a rockery subject, while the large, short stemmed flowers are fine in the 
miniature bouquets which are just now so popular. It is an easily grown, free 
flowering all around garden annual.
