attractive, 8 to 12 
inches high, of healthy, 
sturdy growth, and free

produce for weeks large 
trusses of flowers, which, in 
our new Giant varieties, 
average from 41% to 6 inches 
in circumference. Seed sown in 
the spring produces fine plants for 
the next winter’s blooming. The 
varieties offered below we have selected 
from the best Giant. strains procured by us 
from specialists in England, France and Ger- 
Imany, and were grown to perfection in our own 
greenhouses for comparison. What we catalogue 
ts strictly the cream, and fanciers will find them all of surpassing excellence.
