CARNATION IRENE (Right) 
Dianthus caryophyllus (2...) 
THE MOST FRAGRANT OF ALL GARDEN PINKS 
The fragrance of Irene is one of its outstanding qualities . . . literally drenches the 
garden with old-fashioned, clove-scented fragrance unequaled by any other garden 
Pink. Flowers themselves are produced continuously, the new buds opening as the 
old ones finish. One 8-in. plant in our garden had over 60 flowers last spring. Irene 
is an exquisite shade of pink bearing 2- to 21%4-in., very double flowers, averaging 
about 60 petals each. The sturdy stems are 12 to 15 in. long, and the plant makes a 
solid mound of color in the garden. A sport of England’s top-favorite white Car- 
nation, Mrs. Sinkins, this new and unusually free-flowering Carnation was found by 
Mrs. Rene Hague in her garden in Toronto, Canada. 
This delightful Pink will give you as much enjoyment as any other one perennial 
because of its unusually heavy fragrance, its amazing number of flowers and its easy 
culture. Use it freely throughout the garden for an extra dash of color and added 
interest. Plants are hardy and vigorous . . . will please you when you see them in 
your garden next summer.

WHITE BLEEDING-HEART 
(Right) 
Dicentra formosa 
Sweetheart 
This lovely, delicate plant well deserves 
a place in every garden. It blooms heavy- 
ily in the spring and continues to produce 
flowers all during the summer and fall. 
The shape of the pure white flowers is 
similar to the old-fashioned Bleeding- 
heart, a little smaller in size but far more 
delicate in appearance. 
The light green, silvery leaves are almost 
transparent, particularly graceful and 
fern-like. White Bleeding-heart grows 
luxuriantly in any reasonably good gar- 
den soil but prefers a continuous supply 
of moisture and slight shade. Splendid 
for planting in the foreground of per- 
ennial borders and rock-gardens because 
it grows only 9 to 12 in. high. Plant 
generously with Viola Purple Heart, 
as in the illustration at the right. This 
is a very unusual plant which we are 
proud to -be able to offer to our many 
good friends and customers.

CHRYSANTHEMUM RED TROJAN (Below) (PAF) 
A New Variety in a Handsome Fall Color 
Red Trojan deserves a prominent place in your garden because you will cherish its lovely maroon-red flowers and 
somewhat dwarf form. Starting in early October you will thrill to its magnificent display of 114- to 2-in., maroon- 
red flowers so freely produced on compact, vigorous, 18- to 24-in. plants. Many customers tell us that Red Trojan 
is especially lovely for planting in the foreground of other Chrysanthemum beds and in perennial borders because 
its slightly dwarf form makes it particularly useful in front of other plants. Set out 
several of these in a group now and you will be rewarded with a glowing display of warm 
red next October.
