THE NEW CLEAB SCABLET BEDDING 

 OEBANITTM "HELEN MICHELL" 



The best commercial novelty for 1018 (name

 Henry F. Mlchell Co., Philadelphia, Pa., and 

 ourselves and the plants will ail be grown by 

 us at our place at Norwood, where we will be 

 pleased to have you call. You will find that 

 this Geranium has all the good points claimed 

 for It. "Helen Micbell" is aemldouble, of the 

 clearest possible shade of scarlet, is early In 

 bloom and produces these continuously during 

 the season. It grows compact medium dwarf, 

 with lustrous green foliage, and throws up gigan- 

 tic flower heads continuously; we claim It to 

 have the largest flower heads of any of the 

 bedding geraniums. The Individual blooms meas- 

 ure 2% Inches across. It is a common occurrence 

 that a single 4-lnch pot plant shows 4 fully open 

 gigantic flower beads, several half open, and 

 more in bud. We are booking orders that will 

 be flUed In rotation from January, 1918.
