VARIATION IN COLOR AS 

 WELL AS IN FORM 



These are different examples of our 

 curiously crested "wild geranium" a 

 plant that has been so modified as to 

 merit botanical classification as a fixed 

 variety. It will be seen that there is 

 marked variation in color as well as 

 form. By selective breeding the color 

 variations are being fixed just as the 

 crested condition of the leaf has been. 

 The modification shown has been 

 effected by selective breeding alone, 

 without hybridization, from the smooth, 

 flat leaf of the common wild Heuchera. 

 (One-half life size.)
