SWEET MEMORY is the hardy carna- 
tion you have been waiting for. This 
lovely new perennial carnation, it could 
be said, has all the good features that 
a plant needs to be really outstanding. 
It is perfectly hardy, has large double, 
sweet-scented, carnation-like flowers; 
but yet, these flowers are carried on 
short, sturdy stems which never flop 
over. Its growth is compact and 
tight, forming a cushion-like plant. Just 
picture a matured plant, with carna- 
tion-like foliage and so compact in 
growth, covered with two-inch fully 
double carnation-like blooms on the 
sturdy stems eight to twelve inches 
high. It blooms late May and June, and 
a few blooms intermittently all sum- 
mer. The color is pure white with crim- 
son-maroon spots at various parts in 
the center of the flower. All our vis- 
itors who have seen it have liked it 
immensely, and we know that you will, 
too, It is as easy to grow as any other 
pinks or carnations, doing beautifully 
in any average garden soil which is 
well-drained and in a sunny location. 
It will stand a little shade, but not too 
much. You owe it to yourself to try 
this outstanding new plant and be 
among the first to have Sweet Memory 
in your garden. Sturdy plants that will 
give you a few blooms off and on all 
summer this year and will develop into 
nice, big bushy plants and give you at 
least ten times as many blooms next 
year and thereafter. Sweet Memory’s 
compact and bushy growth, and ever- 
green foliage all year round makes it 
outstanding for hedging and bordering 
flower beds. Each 75c, Three $2.00
