Fragrant Hardy 
Garden Carnations 
Carnations have always been general favorites. Who does not love their 
delightful, spicy fragrance? They are wonderful for cutting and excellent 
for beds or borders. Do best in well-drained soil, rich in lime, and a sunny 
exposure. If seed is sown early, many plants will bloom the same season. 
Plants, especially Chabaud’s Giant Improved, may be lifted in the fall and 
potted up for indoor winter flowering.

fringed blooms, 2 in. and more across, 
may be had in 5 or 6 months from

Plants are vigorous, uniform in habit, 
1^ to 2 ft. tall, 1 ft. or more across.
