Calceolarla hybrida grandiflora 



Dreer's Perfection. We pride ourselves on this special 

 Dreer's strain which contains the most beautifully 

 spotted and blotched varieties in an exceedingly rich 

 and varied assortment of colors. The plants are of 

 perfect form and fine substance. They are dwarf, 

 compact, and very free flowering. Calceolarias are 

 universal favorites for decorating the greenhouse or 

 conservatory and the beautiful pocket-like flowers 

 make it an ornamental plant hard to excel. This 

 strain is grown for us by a celebrated Scotch spe- 

 cialist and it is considered the finest in cultivation.
