Its flowers are of a distinct and perfectly new tint in this class; being of the most brilliant salmon color imagin- able, changing into a salmony rose when fading. That this variety is distinct from all otheis is easily proved by the seeds, which are white or yellowish white, while those of all other annual Pinks are dark-brown or black. The flowers are well formed and nicely fringed ; the plants attain a height of 10 to 12 inches 10 5738 Dwarf Hybrid Fringed Pinks New strain, selected from that beautiful variety, " Salmon Queen," and difl"ering from that sort by their somewhat smaller, less fringed, but much finer colored flow. ers, which vary from white to pur- plish-red, being tinged with bright salmon and having a dark ring around the eye.
