DIANTHUS 
TRADE MARK 
H ere’s a delightful little flower 
that’s pretty ALL THE TIME. 
First it appears as a little cushion 
all soft and fuzzy like the back 
of a furry kitten. Then in May 
flower buds appear—hundreds 
of them—on short, straight stems 
that bristle out like the quills of 
a frightened porcupine. And 
then in late hlay and June 
blooms appear, like a beautiful 
miniature fireworks display, like 
hundreds of tiny rockets all ex' 
ploding at once. 
Just like 
hundreds of 
tiny sky rock¬ 
ets all ex¬ 
ploding at 
once. See de¬ 
scription at
