. Book of flowers, plants, and seeds. Flowers, Catalogs; Vegetables, Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental, Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture), Pennsylvania, Catalogs. 36 Harry Chaapel, Williamsport, NEW DWARF MARGUERITE CARNATION. Superb New Dwarf Marguerite Carnations. This new race of Carnations has created quite a sensa- tion among florists on both sides of the Atlantic, not only on account of their beautiful flowers of all colors, and the remarkable percentage that come "double," but also from the fact that, unlike all others, they bloom in about four monllis from the time of sowing the seed, and continue to flower until checked by frost. The most beautiful fragrant double Carnations can now be had in full flower in the open garden as easily and almost as quickly as the Chinese Pinks ! Also for flowering in the house this new strain will be invaluable. Fully eighty per cent. of the flowers come double ; of large size. They embrace a fine range of brilliant colors. The plants are dwarf, branching, compact and neat in habit, standing well upright without any support. They are ^ftxy free- flowering and certainly a novelty of unusual merit. Per packet, 15 cents ; 2 packets for 25 cents. Dianthus, Chinese and Japanese Summer Pinks. The China and Japan Pinks are deservedly very popu- lar, as few flowers can equal them in beauty and pro- fusion of bloom. They comprise many distinct and most beautifully-marked varieties, of rich and varied colors. They bloom continually all summer and fall, until over- taken by severe frost; they are alike ornamental in the garden and for bouquets. Snowflake. Purest white ; flowers of immense size, very double and delicately fringed at the edg-es of petals. Pkt., 15 cents. Crimson Belle. Magnificent single flowers of large size; velvety glowing crimson. Pkt., 10 cents. Eastern Queen. Beautiful single flowers, marbled light and dark mauve ; 2 to 4 inches across. Pkt., 10 cents. Tie three beautiful Pinks above for 25 cents, Chinens
