NEW DOUBLE IVY-LEAVED GERANIUM, " King Albert." 



A novelty in Ivy-leaved Geraniums, having the same style and habit of growth as in the 

 single flowering sorts. Flowers very double, a beautiful mauve color, lightly striped towards the 

 centre with carmine. The flowers being double remain on the plant considerably longer than the 

 single sorts, hence rendering it of more value for all use. (See cut ) 



Price, 50 cents each; §4.50 per dozen. 



NEW BRONZE GERANIUM, "Earl Roslyn." 



Very dwarf and compact, bearing the same relative 

 proportions to this class as the Lillipution Zonale do to 

 the large, coarse growing sorts — leaves golden yellow, 

 very strongly marked with a band of dark maroon. 

 This has proved with us to be one of the best bedding 

 sorts, even better than " Pres. McMahon," keeping its 

 markings during the unprecedented dry season through 

 which we have just passed. 



Price, 75 cents each; $7.50 per dozen. 



BRONZE GERANIUM, "Black Douglas." 



Foliage yellow, marked with a broad chocolate zone, 

 much resembling Pres. McMahon in its coloring, but 

 differing from other sorts in having bright pink flowers, 

 rendering it quite distinct. 

 Ivy Geranium, " King Albert." Price, 50 cents each; $4.50 per dozen. 



HYBRID CAPE GERANIUM, " Echinatum." 

 This class of Geraniums is entirely distinct, but very little known, and few have any idea 

 of their value. They bloom ve~y freely, and are valuable for cut flowers. This sort is a repre- 

 sentative of this class; the leaves are covered with a white silvery down; flowers pure white; 

 the upper petals feathered with maroon, borne on well-formed trusses; the cut gives a good idea 

 of its character. (See cut.) Price, $1.00 each. 



,^W NEW DOUBLE GERANIUM, 



r^ ' V "^t#v " Jacobea." 



<rrjl •/''-;■ lllll The flowers of this variety are of a novel 



shade of violet purple ; growth dwarf, and dense 

 L^ leaves darkly zoned. 



^1, Price, 75 cents each; $7.50 per dozen. 



Geranium Echinatum. 



NEW DOUBLE GERANIUM, 



" L'Annee Terrible." 



A grand improvement on " Victor Lemoine," 



each single flower being of immense size, borne 



on unusually large trusses ; color bright orange 



scarlet; a decided acquisition. 



Price, 75 cents each; $7.50 per dozen. 



NEW DOUBLE GERANIUM, 

 "Francois Portusati." 



This is the first of a new color in Double 

 Geraniums, and might well be styled a "Double 

 Bicolor. " The flowers are white, with a bright 

 salmon centre. In style of growth it resembles 

 "Asa Gray,"' flowering as freely as the single 

 flowering varieties. 



Price, 75 cents each; $7.50 per dozen. 



NEW DOUBLE GERANIUM, 



"Speculum." 



Of Dwarf, short-jointed style of growth, with 

 foliage slightly zoned; flower very pretty; 

 blackish carmine, like rose " Geant des Batail- 

 les," 



Price, 75 cents each; $7.50 per dozen.
