GERANIUMS. 



E. H. Trego — In this fine new Geranium 

 we have by far the best of all double 

 scarlet Geraniums both as a bedder and 

 pot plant. The flowers are large, semi- 

 double, borne in immense heads held on 

 stiff stalks high above the foliage. The 

 color is dazzling scarlet. It will produce 

 50 per cent, more flowers in a pot than 

 any other Geranium grown. Therefore, 

 to those who grow Geraniums, it is indis- 

 pensable. 25 and 50c. 



Alphonse Ricard — A strong grov/er, 

 dwarf and branching, and producing flow- 

 ers in great masses. Both floret and 

 truss are of enormous size, single, or 

 slightly doubled, and color a brilliant 

 shade of orange red. 



Beaute Poltevine — Semi-double. Enor- 

 mous flov/ers, aurora pink, shading to 

 bright salmon center. The grandest of 

 all the light fancy Bruants. 



Marquis Castellane — A shapely dwarf 

 grower, with immense flowers about 2V2 

 inches in diameter. Tvv'o beautiful shades 

 of red; petals undulating on the edges; 

 very fine and distinct. This magnificent 

 nev/ red variety ranked as high as Viand 

 in the open ground, which is the highest 

 praise vv^e can give it as a bedder. We 

 predict that this variety will become as 

 popular as A Ricard, and is a distinct 

 and lovely color, besides blooming freely 

 in winter. Fine for pots; 25c. each. 



Geraniunis. 



S. A. Nutt — The very best of the dark 

 crimson-scarlet bedders. Always in 

 heavy demand. We have a very large 

 stock of it. Stands the sun perfectly, 

 and is always a mass of bloom. 



Mme. Jaulin — Semi-double. Very large 

 florets compose a truss of grand size; 

 center, tender pink, surrounded by border 

 of white. For freshness and beauty this 

 color is without a parallel among out-
