'^New Geranium, Mrs. Richard F. Gloede 



A Wonderful Creation of Loveliness 



ORIGINATED BY MR. RICHARD F. GLOEDE 



I take great pleasure in announcing to the trade the release of my new geranium, 

 Mrs. Richard F. Gloede. This geranium has taken extreme tests under my personal supervision 

 for all purposes where geraniums are required and proven itself 100% in all their rigid tests. It has 

 been pronounced by all who have seen it, the most wonderful of all geraniums introduced to date, 

 its habits being all in a class by itself. Habit of growth, very strong, of medium height, close jointed, 

 foliage being of a heavy texture, of exceptionally dark green,, most beautifully zoned. 



This wonderful geranium blooms from babyhood up, out of the cutting bench. It 

 does not care where you may use it, inside as a pot plant, vases, window boxes, or bedding. The 

 continuation of blooming does not cease. The magnificent flowers of this wonderful variety 

 are produced at every second joint on the stem, the flowers being of a great size, semi-double. 



The color of this wonderful bloom is indeed very hard to describe. It has been 

 discussed by a number of artists, who describe it as being a true, bright, cerise rose. It does not 

 fade and stands up perfect in storms.

A bench of Mrs. Richard F. Gloede geraniums in bloom or a bed outside is 



truly a grand sight. The beautiful dark foliage so heavily covered with a sheet of these mag- 

 nificent flowers, intermingled with a heavy proportion of large heads of buds ready to burst open 

 IS a combination that is hard to grasp.
