ETERANTHE, or Double General 
Grant—Color of the flowers is a 
light vermilion-red of a most 
pleasing shade. The flowers are 
absolutely perfect in shape, con- 
tour and make-up, trusses excep- 
tionally large and borne in_ im- 
mense spherical balls, often measur- 
ing eight inches in diameter. It 
does finely in the open ground, 
and is perfectly reliable as a bed- 
ding Geranium of the _ highest 
merit. It makes a compact, dense growth, and has all the 
qualities that go to make the perfect bedder that it is. Fine 
also in pots. The very finest scarlet bedder. :

rosy-red. A lovely flower. 15 cents. 
JEAN VIAUD—This is the best large-flowering double pink 
Geranium in cultivation. Anyone seeing a specimen truss 
cannot fail to become enthusiastic over it, pronouncing it the 
largest and finest Geranium in cultivation. The flowers are 
borne on bold trusses of enormous size, almost spherical, 
and as many as sixty florets have been counted on a single 
truss. The color is the richest deep pink, shading near the 
base of the petals to light pink, the base of the upper 
petals creamy-white. 
LA FAVORITE—In this Geranium we 
believe we have the finest double 
white Geranium in cultivation. The 
flowers are borne in large trusses 
of the purest snow-white, retaining 
this pure whiteness even in the 
height of summer, and for winter 
blooming they are all that can be 
desired. Do not fail to add this 
charming variety to your collection.
