PINK

Dianthus plumarius. Hardy perennial



This old English flower is valued in every garden. Both the double and

single varieties are easily raised from seed and the plants bloom with

the greatest freedom. Seed may be sown any time from April to August.

Treat the seedlings in the manner advised for Carnations, and in due

course transfer to open quarters. The foliage maintains its colour

during the severest winter, and is therefore worth consideration for

furnishing the border, to say nothing of the abundant display of

perfumed flowers which the plants afford in early summer.
