John Good. — Truss of enormous size and quite globular in form; 

 stems long- and rigid. A grand improvement on Lady Rose- 

 berry, color being a clear salmon, lightly edged with vhite. 



Gettysburg.— Bright crimson-maroon, of beautiful shade, flower 

 very large and of fine form. This in an extra beautiful dark 

 variety. 



Bill Nye. — Color peach, shading to pale salmon, flower of fine 

 size and form. A splendid grower. Of nice, compact habit. 



Benjamin Schroder. — Light green foliage that is very bright in 

 color. Flower extremely large, of soft, rosy-pink color, like 

 that of Mary Hill, with distinct white blotch on the upper 

 petals, of satiny texture. Petals slightly recurving. 



Beauty of Richmond. — Intense orange-scarlet, very dazzling, 

 with large white eye, flower perfectly circular and of im- 

 mense size, foliage lightly zoned. A seedling from Beauty 

 of Kent. Kxtremely fine. 



Protee.— Flowers very large and freely produced in immense 

 trusses. Color silvery-lilac, white shading, changing to sil- 

 very-pink. A splendid sort. 



Monsieur Poinsignon. — The color is a bright aurora-rose, shaded 

 salmon, with white eye. Large trusses of splendid-shaped 

 flowers. 



M. Nonry.— A most pleasing lavender-rose color, very chaste and 

 beautiful, with distinct marking of white at center of flower. 

 Dwarf, and so free in bloom as to literally cover the plant. 



Mrs. E. G. Hill. — A most distinct and pleasing shade of salmon, 

 with light shading at the center. The shading at the center 

 is variable, however. Trusses are very large and composed 

 of an immense number of florets. 





Madame Alfred Mame — A 'magnificent bedding variety. The 

 trusses are of extraordinary size, the florets by actual meas- 

 urement being two and one-half inches long by two inches 

 wide, of almost Pansy form. The color is a soft sub scarlet, 

 lower petals shading to salmon in the center, which is deeply 

 veined crimson. This variety has been universally admired 

 by all who have seen it in flower. A variety that will proba- 

 bly never be equaled. 



Marguerite de Layres. — A grand single white, plants a mass of 

 white bloom, trusses of the grandest size, florets extra large 

 and of the purest white. The plant is robust. Grand for 

 pots orbedding. It is by far the best single white. 



LansdOWne.— A soft, deep scarlet, floret large and round, and 

 formed into large trusses, borne with the greatest freedom. 

 An ideal bedder, producing a mass of soft, brilliant color, 

 well above the foliage, which is a light, bright green. 



Blanche Moulas. — A grand bedding variety of much merit. The 

 flowers are large, salmon, beautifully bordered with white. 

 A Geranium of rare beauty. 



8ouvenir de Mirande. — The greatest novelty in new Geraniums 

 that has appeared for a number of years is undoubtedly 

 Souvenir de Mirande. It is entirely distinct from any other 

 variety grown, and is quite different from the usual marked 

 varieties that have from time to time made their appearance. 

 It has round florets, upper petals cream-white, with a dis- 

 tinct rosy-pink border, lower petals salmon-rose, streaked 

 pure lilac. A most novel color. It is extremely free-flow- 

 ering, and produces fine trusses of its magnificent blooms. 

 Mr. John Thorpe says it has made a leap of a decade in its 

 advent.
