CATALOGUE OF SPECIALTIES AND NOVELTIES FOR 1901. Garpatiop, ]\[eW MarS£Uerite. A New Strain of Dwarf, Perpetual Blooming Carna- tions, Which Flower in 3 or 4 Months from Seed. The plant is oi dwarf, compact and pretty habit, branching closely above the ground, with vigorous stalks which need not be supported by sticks. It flowers abun- dantly in a great variety of colors throughout the year, and the calyx never bursts. But what renders this variety far- superior to any other is that the flowers appear in about three months after sowing the seed. Moreover, it produces at least 80 per cent, of double flowers, which are large and perfect. The plants grow easy everywhere, both in sandy soil and heavy loam, and will give the greatest satisfaction. Indeed, they signify an improvement on all other Carnations which nobody ever thought of. Think of getting Carnations to flower from seed in about four months, which last throughout the winter, and of various colors, white, pink, scarlet, purple, red, striped, mottled, flaked, variegated, etc. We say without hesitation that it is the most important flower seed noveltv in manv years. They are alike valuable for pot culture and for garden. Do not sow cheap Marguer- ite Carnation seed ; it will disappoint you. Per pkt.
