Gerbera Jamesoni 



(Transvaal or Barberton Daisy) 



During the past few years this Daisy from the Transvaal has 

 been extensively featured by the florists as a cut flower, particu- 

 larly in late winter and early spring, its graceful flowers of striking 

 beauty have established its popularity, but its value is not only as a 

 winter cut flower, but it is a worthy and novel subject for the mixed 

 border in summer. Planted in a well drained position where it is 

 fully exposed to the sun it will produce its attractive flowers 3j 

 inches and over in diameter throughout the summer and fall 

 months. The plant is of vigorous growth forming a dense tuft of 

 leaves from the crown from which it sends up in constant succession 

 stout stems 12 to 18 inches long which are terminated with single 

 daisy-like flowers varying in color from blush white and salmon 

 pink to brilliant scarlet which we can supply only in mixture at 

 35 cts. each; $3.50 per doz.
