 -cut, it is variegated white and green; very fragrant; fine for 

 trimming bouquets with. (See Cut.)

GERANIUM, " Mountain of Snow." 

 We have experimented with a large number of varieties of 

 variegated Geraniums, with a view to developing those having 

 the best qualities for bedding purposes. This sort we find to 

 possess a vigorous growth, is an abundant bloomer, and for rib- 

 bon lines or massing, is one of the best. The centre of the leaf 

 is bright green, the outer margin broadly marked with silvery 

 -white. One of the whitest leaved sorts; flowers bright scarlet. 

 25 cents each ; $2,25 per dozen. 



Ivy Geranium, " L'Elegante." 

 GERANIUMS, IVY-LEAVED. 



Although the foliage of this class is of sufficient interest to 

 warrant its cultivation, yet the value is greatly enhanced by 

 the beauty and profusion of its flowers during the spring and 

 summer months, running through the various shades of white, 

 pink and crimson. The list below is selected as giving the 

 widest range of color. They are well adapted for rockwork or 

 vases, and for drooping over baskets, or trained on trellises, are 

 unsurpassed; few plants give more satisfaction for house culture 

 as they may be trained on trellises in any shape desired.
