A superb, large-flowered variety, bear- ing snowy white flowers, splendid for cutting and the best for potting. The flowers are very double and crowded to- f ether in a compact spike and bloom rom early spring to late fall, and the plant is much branched, thus affording plenty of cut flowers. It is listed by some seedsmen as the "Princess Alice," or the ,lCut-and-Come-Again" Stock, the latter name arising from the fact that the more the blossoms are cut the better the plant seems to thrive. Sown late in the season, it makes a fine plant for winter bloom- ing.
