New Hydrangeas 



We have Introduced to American commerce practically all the 

 worthy French Hydrangeas in popular demand today. It has been 

 our constant aim to discard superseded and inferior sorts, and we 

 believe every variety in the sets following to possess such individual 

 distinctive merit as will make .It valuable. All plants are in well 

 protected coldframea and will be kept dormant aa late aa poaalble 

 In Spring.
