Pretty Jemima, dazzling scarlet, white center. 



Golden and Silver Tri- Color Geraniums. 



These varieties are noticed under the head " Ornamental " Foliaged 

 Plants; and the Ivy- Leaved Geraniums are embraced under the same 

 heading. 



The Sweet Scented Geraniums. 



These plants are indispensable for bouquets and vases, their fragrance 

 being agreeable to all lovers of flowers. 



Formerly, the Rose and the Oak-Leaved were the only kinds commonly 

 cultivated, but now there are a dozen varieties from which to make a 

 selection, and all of them are desirable and beautiful, indeed, are quite 

 essential, for there are few plants which afford such graceful back- 

 grounds for borders or bouquets. 



Denticulatum is -a rose-scented variety, with finely cut foliage. 



Lady Plymouth is also rose-scented, and its leaves are prettily mar- 

 gined with white. 



Shrubland Pet is of dwarf growth, and very sweet scented.
