Burpee’s Fragrant Hardy 
Garden Carnations 
Who does not love the delightful, spicy fragrance of carnations? They are wonderful for 
cutting and excellent for beds, borders or pots. The dwarf varieties, because of their com- 
pact growth, are especially suited for edgings and rock gardens. All 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, cut 
back and potted up for indoor winter flowering where conditions are favorable.
