est:" a large selection of perennial geraniums — 

 cranebills; a dozen varieties of mountain laurel — field 

 grown (which is unusual for this area of the state; over 

 30 varieties of vegetatively propagated begonias (a lot 

 of unusual ones acquired through the Massachusetts 

 Begonia Society); and over 100 varieties — ivies, cas- 

 cades, zonals (hard-to-find types like Blueblood, High- 

 land Flash, Happy Thought, and Will Rogers)— of gera- 

 niums. Stock plants — in six- and eight-inch pots — for 

 most are overwintered and sold as patio plants in the 

 spring. 



And the real expansion will be in the increasing 

 number of varieties grown. 



Ben stresses that "with the exception of patented 

 material, we don't buy in. We raise and propagate ev- 

 erything ourselves. This is one of our real selling 

 points — people know that what we sell has done well 

 in this part of the state." 



There will never be a lot of each, but there will be 

 plenty of varieties to choose from. (B.P.)
