HARDY GARDEN CARNATIONS © 
Le, Sak 
Who does not love the delightful, spicy fragrance of carnations? They are ideal for 
_ cutting and excellent for beds, borders, wide edgings, rock gardens or pots. 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. It is advisable to cut off all flowering stalk§ soon after bloom- 
ing to prevent plants from becoming straggly. Plants, especially Chdbaud’s Giant Im- 
proved and Burpee’s Super Giants, may be lifted in the fall, cut back and potted up for 
indoor winter flowering where light and heat conditions are satisfactory for their culture.

blooms, 2 in. and more across, may be had
