Dreer's American Hybrids. In offering 

 this selection of seedlings we believe that they 

 are the best obtainable at the present time, and 

 we know of nothing that we can recommend 

 that will give the amateur greater pleasure for 

 his window garden. They have been grown 

 from seed which has been produced by crossing 

 the finest named varieties obtained from the 

 most noted specialists, the cream of their col- 

 lections, and the resulting strain embodies, 

 with vigorous growth, free-flowering habit and 

 enormous size of the individual flow- 

 ers, a really wonderful range of colors, 

 varying from deep crimson to bright 

 orange scarlet, and from light rose to 

 almost pure white, many of them beau- 

 tiful combinations in stripes and varie- 

 gations. Mixed varieties only in very 

 strong bulbs, 75 cts. each; $7.50 per 

 doz.; $60.00 per 100.
