NEW AND RARE PLANTS. 



GERANIUM, "HAPPY THOUGHT." 



GERANIUM, " Happy Thought." 



This is still much admired. A novel style of leaf variega- 

 tion in the Geranium, differing from the ordinary form in 

 having a large yellow blotch in the centre of the leaf, with 

 an outer band of green at the margin. Flowers rich 

 magenta rose; dwarf. A good bedder. The cut is a very 

 good representation of it. 



30 cts. each; $3.00 per doz. 



GERANIUMS, New Bronze. 



There is such a similarity in the general colors of bronze 

 Geraniums that special descriptions can give but little 

 idea of their individual character and good points. We 

 would only say that the below-named Mnds are mostly 

 new varieties and are extra fine, containing all the best 

 features of coloring, habit and vigor of growth known in 

 the old varieties.

GERANIUMS, IVY. 



The Ivy Geraniums are now being used largely as basket 

 and vase plants, and for house plants to train on trellis, 

 either upright or drooping. Few plants are more easy of 

 culture or more attractive; both flowers and foliage are 

 now very varied, and in King Albert and others (See Gut) 

 we have very fine double flowers.

GOLDEN TRICOLOR GERANIUM. 



GERANIUMS, New Golden Tricolor. 



It is difficult to describe the different leaf-markings of 

 these; suffice it to say that they are marked with yellow, 

 crimson, scarlet and maroon, after th« manner of " autumn 

 leaves." These newer kinds are mostly strong growers.

GESNERIA MAGNIFICA.

 in filling Wardian cases or baskets. Its large velvety 

 leaves are crimson maroon color, tinted pink. It flowers 

 very freely, sending up spikes of orange scarlet flowers in 

 great abundance. 



50 cts. each ; $4.50 per doz. 



GESNERIA INSIGNE. 



A handsome species of this attractive family, bearing 

 large and showy flowers of a delicate lavender color. 

 They are similar in shape to those of the Gloxinia, but 

 fragrant. Gesnerias are worthy of general cultivation, 

 and will be more appreciated when better known.
