Dianthus^ New Blue 
PERENNIAL 
Some years ago a most delightful Dianthus was 
found in Japan, growing in the mountain crevices, 
and some seeds were sent to England. Messrs. 
Allwood managed to raise most of these, and 
acchmatized the seedlings. The color is a bright 
lavender-blue, the foliage is deep green, and the 
flowers are in trusses about 9 inches high. Blooms 
in July, August, and September. While not an 
easy plant to raise, it is delightful when you have 
done so. Pkt. $1.50. 
Dianthus plumarius. 
Little Jock Hybrids 
HARDY 
A new and rare gem for the rock-garden. Not 
more than 6 to 8 inches high, the compact plants 
produce a multitude of prettily fringed flowers 
about 1 inch across, in varied tints of pink, rose, 
and white, mostly with a deep center zone. Pkt. 
75 cts., 3 pkts. $2. 
Dimorphotheca calendulacea. 
Tom Thumb, Yellow Gem 
ANNUAL 
This showy little plant does not exceed 5 to 
6 inches in height and bears a wealth of well- 
expanded flowers of a pure bright yellow without 
zone or eye. It is an excellent subject for bedding 
or for edges and may be used to advantage in the 
rock-garden when spring flowers are over. A 
half-hardy annual of easy culture, it requires a 
dry, sunny situation. These African Daisies 
bloom most of the summer and fall. Pkt. 50 cts., 
5 pkts. $2.
