THE FLORAL WONDER OF THE CENTURY. 



STAR SPANGLED BANNER — The grandest and most unique floral 

 noveltj' ever offered, and certainlj' the most remarkable and dis- 

 tinct single Geranium ever introduced to the public. Star 

 Spangled Banner has made a great sensation vs^herever shovs^n 

 on account of the many distinct colors in the individual floi'ets, 

 ■which ai'e round and large, often inches in diameter, and 

 contain three distinct shades, viz. : red, white and blue, the col- 

 ors contained in our national flag, from whence it derives its 

 name. I sincerely believe that it is destined to be ciierished in 

 "the land of the free and the home of the brave" like that glo- 

 rious old fla?, "The Star Spangled Banner."' "Three cheers for 

 the Red, Wh-te and Blue." The plant is a strong, vigorous 

 grower, thriving well in almost any situation, a remarkably free 

 everbloomer, producing quantities of its high colored trusses, 

 which cause unbounded surpri=e and astonishment to all who 

 have been fortunate enough to behold its charming beauty. Not- 

 withstanding its rarity ic will be sold for 25c each. 



COLUlViBIA — Another fancy geranium with exquisitely beautiful 

 flowers. A wonderfully free bloomer, with thick, round petaled 

 flowers. Each floret has a large creamy white center. The 

 ground work of the upper petals is also white edged with soft 

 rose. Lower i)etals a soft bright salmon rose, with lighter 

 shadings. A remarkable Geranium in every respect. 15c each. 



THE WONDER — This Geranium, recently from France, has no 

 superior and scarcely an equal in the entire Geranium family. 

 Being so intense in color, such a wonderful bloomer and strong 

 .grower, it has been the wonder and admiration of every beholder, 

 hence named "The Wonder." The flowers are the most intense 

 dazzling scarlet, and are borne in trusses of largest size, measur- 

 ing from IS to 20 inches in circumference, with single florets 

 measuring 7 inches in circumference. The foliage is fine and 

 rich in color, and in striking contrast to the brilliant scarlet 

 flowers. As a pot plant or a bedding geranium it has no equal. 

 10c each. 



PEACH BLOSSOM — Color of the flower a clear bright salmon, with 

 center and outer edges touched with white, and with soft 

 shadings of carmine, velvety in texture, and of the most beauti- 

 ful semi-double fonn. A fine bedder. Distinct in coloring from 

 every other variety. This Gei-anium is especially desirable for 

 pot cultui'e, as it is more dainty and more of a study in shading 

 than any other, although it does equally well as a bedding vari- 

 ety. 10c each. 



MADONNA — An exceedingly pretty and dainty "variety of fine 

 habit. Flowers are of a ' lovely pale pink color, delicately pen- 

 ciled with a deeper shade. Florets are unusually large and the 

 trusses are of immense size. As a single pot plant this is espec- 

 ially desirable, both on account of its free blooming habit and 

 coloring of the flowers. One of the most pleasing varieties. 10c 

 each. 



MRS. J. M. GARR — Unaoubtedly the finest single white Geranium 

 in existence, resembling a huge snow ball. Unsurpassed both 

 for pot culture and for bedding. Flowers are of the purest 

 white color even in the dryest weather. Trusses and flowers- 

 are of enormous sise. borne erect, high above its beautiful fol- 

 iage. An unequalled white in every respect. 10c each. 



REV. HARRIS — Beautiful' bright rosy crimson. The flowers are 

 perfect in form, being large and round and borne well and clean 

 above the foliage. It is grand for bedding, being constantly in. 

 bloom. In the fall the plants can be taken in the house, vs'here 

 they will bloom profusely all winter. One hundred and nine 

 trusses and buds have been counted upon a single exhibition 

 plant. This beautiful variety will astonish all who grow it. 15e 

 each. 



MAD. MOLIN —This is the best bedder in the single salmon section, 

 and entirely distinct in color from all others. It bears immense 

 trusses of the largest flowers, reddish apricot, veined darker 

 with beautiful rose center. Florets large and perfectly round.
