Frencli 



Hydrangeas 



For Memorial Day 



We can still furnish plants, now 

 stored in cold frames and which, if 

 given geranium house conditions, 

 will flower fine for Decoration Day. 

 At the prices we quote you will find 

 them a profitable investment. We 

 particularly recommend the 6-inch 

 and 7-inch pot stock. 



AVAL.ANCHB. A Splendid, large, white with a well estab- 

 lished reputation ; an easy variety to force. 



BOTANISTE PELTEREAU. Enormous flowers of a pretty 

 mauve rose. 



BOUQUET ROSE. Large trusses of rosy amber, turning to 

 bright pinli: a favorite with all growers. 



DENTELLE. Entirely distinct, deeply fringed flower of a 

 creamy-white color; it is not suited for forcing; but for 

 Decoration Day and later flowering It Is very valuable. 



E. G. HILL.. This is by far the best pink variety for early 

 forcing that we have yet tried. Trusses of immense size; 

 color a most pleasing shade of piuk which does not fade; 

 growth vigorous, foliage of a pea-green color large and 

 attractive. It is one of the easiest to force, coming into 

 flower as early as Mme. Emile MoulUere. 



FRAICHEUR. Very large, regularly shaped flowers, white, 

 delicately suffused with rose; very free flowering. 



GENERAL DE VIBRAVB. A favorite wherever seen ; very 

 large heads of bright rose-colored flowers; a splendid

 bright pink; has become a general favorite.

 variety on the market to day; an early, easy variety to

 of a transparent white, passing to a tender rose. 



MLLE. AGNES BARILLET. A Splendid white; flowers large

MLLE. DB TBEMAULT. As the result of our own trials, we 

 are convinced that this variety is the best very large- 

 flowered white yet Introduced. As free flowering as any,

 as the old popular Otaksa. 



.MLLE. RENEE GAILLARD. Very large panicles of milky 

 white, irregularly dentated flowers.

 attention. It is an easy variety to force, of a splendid, 

 rich, live rose carmine, entirely distinct from all others.

 rose tint. 



SOUVENIR DE MME. E. CHAUTARD. One of the very best,
