GERA'NIUM (PELARGONIUM), Nat. Ord. Oerania'cece. Half-hardy bedding plant. 
The greatest attention has been, andstill continues to be given to the improvement of the Scarlet Geranium. To 
the amateur purchasing seed it is of the first importance to make sure what the chances are of having really pine 
flowers. To this end we have had seed collected from the very best named kinds. Plants raised from seed sown 
early in spring are decorative in summer.
