S A MnAA This, the finest of dark crimson Geraniums, has now 
■ taken the lead as a bedding Geranium, being used 
in the largest parks and public grounds of the country in preference 
to all others. Its dense, compact growth, profuse blooming and almost 
sun-proof constitution combined, give it the prominence as a bedder it 
has attained. 
Geraniums are especially suited to the South for pot plants, baskets, 
urns, porch and window boxes, bedding, edging and low borders. They 
have a richness of color and deepness of tone not found in any other 
flower; they are healthy, vigorous growers and the beautiful bril¬ 
liant heads of bloom will give any place the appearance of a cheerful, 
loving home. It is everyone’s desire to have an appealing home and 
nothing can compare with flowers in making yours a happy home.
