Geraniums 



We suggested last season about this time that 

 orders be placed for the coming season, some 

 heeded this suggestion and had Geraniums to 

 sell this spring, others put off ordering until 

 they were ready for them therefore did not have 

 any to sell. Can you give any reason why they 

 will be more plentiful next season than last? 

 We can give a number of reasons why they will 

 not. 



We are booking for the wise ones now at 

 $25.00 per 100. the price will not be any less, 

 perhaps more.
