BEDDING GERANIUM 



SINGLE GENEKAL GRANT. 



It is a brilliant orange-scarlet, the flowers are produced in marvelous pro- 

 fusion, the habit is perfect, semi-dwarf, branching and compact. On the 

 whole, Single Geraniums are even more satisfactory for bedding than the double 



ones, as in a very short time after a summer storm they are as fresh as before without any hand 

 cleaning; the double flowers, on the other hand, have to be cleaned off and thev are long in appearing 

 after a storm. {See cut.) Price, 10c. each, SI. 00 per doz., S8.00 per 100."
