Hydrangea Domotoi 



This distinct double flowering sport of Otaksa has 

 been under our observation for the past five years 

 and ■we are thoroughly convinced of, and impressed 

 with, its great value. Its habit in general and color 

 is the same as Otaksa; it is not recommended for early 

 forcing, but for Memorial Day and the natural June 

 flowering season it is about the best variety we know. 

 The beautiful double flowers in immense trusses keep 

 in good condition longer than any other variety. 2-inch 

 pots, $1.50 per doz.; $10.00 per 100. 



Hydrangea Otaksa 



With the increased popularity of the Hydrangeas 

 the old popular Otaksa has also more than held its 

 own, the demand for it at this time being greater than 

 ever. 2-inch pots, §1.0O per doz.; $7.00 per 100.
