THE NEW CLEAR SCARLET BEDDING 

 GERANITTM "HELEN MICHELL." 



The best commercial novelty for 1913 (name 

 registered with S. A. F. & 0. H.). Seedling 

 cross Jean Viand and Alphonse RIeard. This 

 sterling novelty will be introduced Jointly by 

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

 ourselves and the plants will all be grown by 

 HS at our place at Norwood, where we will be 

 pleased to have you call. You will flnd that 

 this Geranium has all the good points claimed 

 for it. "Helen MIchell" is semidouble, of the 

 clearest possible shade of scarlet. Is early In 

 bloom and produces these continuously during 

 the season. It grows compact medium d^arf, 

 with lustrous green foliage, and throws up gigan- 

 tic Cower heads continuously; we claim It to 

 have the largest flower heads of any of the 

 bedding geraniums. The individual blooms meas- 

 ure 2V4 inches across. It is a common occurrence 

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

 gigantic flower heads, several half open, and 

 more In bud. We are booking orders that will 

 be filled In rotation from January, 1913.
