Gen. Grant {true). Vivid, brilliant scarlet. Strong 

 grower, a constant and free bloomer. Still very pop- 

 ular for producing a brilliant mass of color. 



J. D. Cabos. Soft rosy-pink, trusses of largest size, 

 composed of large flowers; a new and delightful color 

 of the Bruant type. Dwarf habit and a profuse 

 bloomer. Vei'y valuable. 



MME. BRUANT. 



IMme. Bruan't. Entirely distinct from all others. 

 The florets are large, white veined with carmine-lake, 

 evenly bordered with bright solferino. The arrange- 

 ment of color is most unique and refreshing. Trusses 

 of good size and well formed and the plant is of vigor- 

 ous habit. Valuable as a bedder, but especially so as 

 a pot plant, selling at sight. See illustration. 



00; 100, $5.00. A set for $1.00. 

 ,25; *♦ 8.00. A set for $1.25. 



I>lmc. Chas. Molin. Bright, light salmon-pink. 



Dwarf, compact; enormous trusses and large florets, 

 well shaped and standing high above the foliage. A 

 most profuse and constant bloomer. The best variety 

 of its color. 



IMrs. A. Blanc. Deep, rich salmon-pink, shading 

 darker t<iward centre. Truss full and well formed; 

 florets large, round and perfect. Much richer in color 

 than Mrs. E. G. Hill, and very valuable. 



IMrs. E. C. Hi!l, Bright, rosy-salmon, veined deep 

 rose, with pearly white centre. Truss large and full 

 and held well above the foliage. Florets large, 214 

 inches across and often six petaled. Wonderfully free 

 in bloom and a grand sort. 



I>lrs. J. IM. Gaar. Snowy- white, very dwarf, with 

 cle£.n though rather small foliage. Stands the sun per- 

 fectly, is the best white bedder and perhaps the most 

 profuse bloomer in existence, being covered throughout 

 the summer with a bank of bloom. Very valuable. 



Eureka. An unique variety. Both truss and flowers 

 very large; carmine-lake, the upper petals being 

 marked at the base with fiery red — the lower ones 

 bordered with crimson. A free bloomer and first-class 

 in every way. 



Columbia. A splendid bedder; light scarlet of daz- 

 zling brightness, two upper petals white, shading to 

 scarlet on the edges; extremely showy; does not lose 

 its color in sunshine, and very valuable on account of 

 its bedding qualities. 



Granville. Lovely bright pink, florets very large; 

 strong grower and free bloomer. The very finest single 

 pink <ieranium and a grand variety. 



J. Sallier. Truss very large and of perfect form, 

 composed of flowers entirely distinct from any other. 

 The edge of each petal is carmine lake, the centre 

 washed in tints of rose and bluish heliotrope — the upper 

 petals being veined carmine and marked with orange 

 at base. A beautiful variety and one of the most valu- 

 able of the newer Geraniums. 



IMme. Hoste. Rich crimson-lake at the edge of petal, 

 shading to rosy carmine towards the centre with 

 blotches of white on upper petals. Flowers large and 

 round: distinct and handsome. A free bloomer but a 

 poor grower.
