LILLIPUTIAN ZONALE GERANIUMS. 



This is a new and interesting form of the zonal section. The growth is very 

 distinct from the ordinary kinds, being proportionately vigorous, whil-t the 

 leaves are small, and the flowers equal in size to the zonal varieties of large 

 growth. The properties of a vigorous and compact dwarf growth, combined 

 with small foliage and blooms equal in size to the large growing class, will be 

 a sufficient recommendation.

 able quality of being a first-class winter blooming plant. 30 cents each.
