Description

MISS C. H. LIPPINCOTT
DIANTHUS.
DWARF SNOWBALL.— This beau
tiful dwarf variety belongs to the
Heddewiggii class of Dianthus. The
plants are very compact dwarf
growth and ai-e covered with lovely,
spotless, snow-white flowers very
full and double. From its dwarf
growth it is very attractive for
edgings, while the flowers are also
very useful for boquets.
Pkt., 150 seeds, 4 cts.
DWARF FIREBALLr— The most
brilliant annual pink in cultivation ;
the plants are constantly covered
with blood-red, perfectly double,
laciniated flowers until checked by
severe frosts. Fkt., 150 seeds, 4 cts.
See pajfe 48 for Grass Seed, White
Clover and Cutworm Food.
I find no Pansy Seed like yours.
Mrs. P. A. Smith.
Jan. 3. 1914. Stoughtou, Mass.
DIANTHUS OR CHINESE PINKS.
b£ST MIXED — One of the most useful and desirable plants, and for beauty and
variety of colors and markings cannot be surpassed, ranging from pure white to the
most dellca.e pink and glowing deep crimson. A bed of these in the flower garden
will make a grand display at small cost. The mixture I offer includes, besides the
standard sorts, all the new and brightest colors in spotted, striped and handsomely
fringed varieties of late Introduction, both single and double. I guarantee it will
give satisfaction with any other strain offered. Fkt., 200 seeds, 4 cts.
NEW LARGE-FLOWERED DWARF DOUBLE
HYBRID PINKS.
The plants grow only nine or ten inches high, with extra large double flowers,
frequently measuring three inches across — of perfect form and brilliant colors, ran£:-
Ing from pure white to deep crimson, while many are beautifully variegated and
fantastically marked. Blooming freely the first season. Pkt., 150 seeds, 4 cts.
DIANTHUS, PLUMARIUS, PHEASANTS-EYE PINK.
Dianthus, Plumarius, is the old-fashioned Grass Pink. It is perfectly hardy,
blooms very profusely in early summer, and Is admirable on account of its delicacy,
sbowiness and fragrance. Its use either as a cemetery or garden flower is always
satisfactory. Pkt., 100 seeds, 4 cts.
WILD FLOWER GARDEN.
Choice mixed seeds. A mixture of many varieties of beautiful, easy growing
flowers, producing a constant and varied bloom the whole season, and is especially
suited for those who wish only a few seeds each of the leading varieties or a much
more extensive collection than their means will permit. In no other manner can so
many seeds be obtained for such a small cost. The mixture is especially prepared
from choice, fresh seeds, the colors and varieties being carefully proportioned, and
will be found superior to any mixture offered. They are very useful for sowing
alongside the garden fence, and on untidy bare spots of ground and cannot fail to

give satisfaction. Pkt., 300 seeds, 4 cts.; oz., 15 cts.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
