Beautiful New Single Aureole Geranium, Md. Bruant. 

 A magnificent variety for bedding. No other Geranium 

 has ever attracted so much attention or been so much ad- 

 mired as this beautiful new aureole flowered variety. It 

 is entirely distinct from any Geranium in cultivation, so 

 much so that visitors on passing through the greenhouses, 

 where hundreds of other varieties are in bloom, single it 

 out at once as the most beautiful and attractive in the 

 whole collection. It might with propriety be called the 

 Pansy-Flowered Geranium, so distinct is it from the or- 

 dinary style. The plant is a vigorous grower, making nice 

 compact plants, and very free flowering, producing fine, 

 large trusses of bloom in great profusion: individual flow- 

 ers of large fine shape; center of flower white, veined 

 with carmine lake, the five petals regularly and distinctly 

 bordered with bright solferino. The arrangement of col- 

 or is exquisite and entirely new in Geraniums. An excel- 

 lent variety for pot culture, being a continuous bloomer 

 Winter and Summer. Price, 10 cents each; 3 for 25 cents, 

 or I will send 20 fine plants for $1.00, postpaid.

Camille Bernardin.New Auerole, Single Geranium. 



Very large trusses, individual florets large and well 

 formed, plant of excellent free flowering habit; rosy 

 peach veined with bright rose and streaked and marbled 

 with pure white. This is one of the best varieties we have 

 seen in this class. Price, 10 cts each; 3 for 25 cts; or I will 

 send 16 fine plants, Camille Bernardin, for $1.00 postpaid. 



Giant Bedding Geranium, Bruanti. 



Color of the flower is a light vermilion-red of a most 

 pleasing shade. The flowers are absolutely perfect in 

 shape, contour and make-up, trusses exceptionally large, 

 and borne in immense spherical balls, often measuring 

 eight inches in diameter. It does finely in the open 

 ground, and is perfectly reliable as a bedding Geranium 

 of the highest merit. Price, 10 cts each; 3 for 25 cts; or 

 I will send 20 fine plants for $1.00, postpaid.
