| Bronze, Gold and Tricolor. 
The Bronze and Tricolor geraniums are very effective bedding plants, the 
foliage being in many instances as beautiful and brilliant as flowers. They 
thrive in California, standing the sun well, and in winter their colors are 
much intensified, making them valuable ornaments when flowers are scarce. 
They should be largely planted in beds and for dividing lines. 
*Glints of Gold.” <A splendid golden bedding variety of very vigor- 
ous growth; the large leaves are exquisitely tinged as if sunshine had passed 
over them leaving glints, of golden light; a faint reddish zone enclrcles them 
and no two leaves are alike, flowers scarlet. A most effective and striking 
plant. It stands the hot sun, and is a most splendid bedder.

ment on ‘‘Mt. of Snow.’’ The plant grows 18 inches high; the foliage is 
deeply and irregularly margined, and marked pure white; flowers rich vel- 
vety crimson. The two above are Mrs. Shepherd’s seedlings. Cuttings one- 
half the price of plants. 10e.

black shadings, the pink being very decided and contrasting finely with the 
irregular broad cream wnite margin, The true name is lost. 20c each. No
