■it jt TD A splendid pure deep pink of the style 



lVlme. mmey. of Bonnat, but a little lighter and a 

 more lovely shade; truss, habit and prof useness of bloom 

 -all that can be desired ; stands wet weather best of all in 

 this class; a splendid thing. 



\rri .. /-\ 1° our grounds for two seasons this has 



W nite V^Ueen. proven itself to be the best of the double 

 whites. The color is pure as snow, a remarkably free bloomer, 

 fine trusses, strong, healthy foliage, absolutely sun-proof; a com- 

 pact grower, producing a plant of medium size in height, but 

 spreading. The flowers are borne on strong stalks held well 

 above the foliage. 



•itir j i. Semi-double Bruant; color, delicate peach- 



Ivlme. jatilin. pink; centre similar to Daybreak carnation, 

 with wide border of white; unrivaled for freshness and beauty; 

 florets are very large, produced in enormous trusses; semi-dwarf, 

 compact, exceptionally vigorous habit, with broad, deep-zoned 

 foliage; a splendid bloomer; one of the most valuable and striking 

 geraniums of recent introduction. 



■»-pf -Kit i Double, very large trusses and large 



1 nomas IVleenan. florets of fine circular form, color bril- 

 liant rosy pink, base of upper petals blotched with orange, quite a 

 new color and a distinct and attractive variety. This should 

 be in every collection. 



•kit * Double scarlet-maroon, semi-dwarf, compact grower, 



IVlarvel. clean, vigorous, healthy foliage ; truss large and full, 

 held well above the foliage, constant bloomer. This is a remark- 

 ably fine bedding variety and when planted in masses is superb. 

 M^-, Immense trusses of brilliant fiery scarlet 



> L«atlOVaS. flowers, shaded with velvet maroon; indi- 

 vidual floret very large and similar form to Beaute Poitevine. 

 Habit exceptionally vigorous and identical with S. A. Nutt, but 

 seems to have more constitution; its color is more brilliant, truss 

 larger and the semi-double floret is a distinct advantage. 

 j « -p. « A strong, vigorous grower, flowers and truss 

 JOfin L/OylC. of the largest size, borne well above the 

 foliage. Color, richest scarlet, exceptionally bright and effective, 

 one of the most profuse-blooming bedders that we have ever had; 

 the habit is ideal; the foliage very broad and strong and stands 

 the sun better than almost any other geranium we grow. 



Marq 



* n Deep brilliant carmine-purple; 



UlSe Oe IVlOntmort. one of the most novel and strik- 



ing shades yet seen ; a splendid habit, vigorous and clean; excel- 

 lent grower and profuse bloomer; fine large floret, massive truss 

 held well up and erect; foliage deeply zoned. 

 "LT L. /"•!_ "^ very beautiful semi-double; clear 



riUbert ^harron. white center, with a heavy band of red- 

 dish carmine around each petal, maculated pure white; fino 

 habit, profuse bloomer; unique, showy and striking. 

 jtjr f-,* . This is one of the finest sorts yet intro- 



Mme Charlotte, duced; the habit is dwarf, spreading, 

 very vigorous; folage heavy, deep green in color, with a distinct, 

 broad chocolate zone; the trusses are enormous, 6 to 8 inches in 

 diameter, and borne in the greatest profusion on fine stalks; the 

 individual floret is very large and round, z\ inches in diameter, 

 semi-double; color, clear, distinct rosy salmon, occasionally 

 marked with white. 



j ,j, j (The variety shown in above cut.) This grand 



Jean Viaud. variety has created a great sensation. Very 

 large, slightly semi-double blooms, borne in large trusses well 

 above the foliage; individual floret large; color, bright rosy pink 

 with distinct white blotch in the centre; habit dwarf, compact, 

 very vigorous and exceptionally free blooming. Foliage clear, 

 deep green with distinct bronze-green zone; unquestionably the 

 best pink geranium for bedding yet introduced and certain to be 

 very largely grown in the future.
