NEW DOUBLE GERANIUM JUPITER. 
GerarjiUips. 
From tlio large list of splendid new double and single Ger- 
■uiiums now offered, vo have selected a few as being particu¬ 
larly line, and which can be furnished at a low price. They 
are of recent introduction, and have received universal praise 
which they justly merit. They all produce very large (lowers 
and trusses, which are of the most vivid colors and free dow¬ 
ering qualities. It is useless for us to say anything in praise 
•f this showy flower. For bedding or for pot culture they 
are everywhere popular. We will only say that the improve¬ 
ment in Geraniums during the past five years has been very 
t reat, and the varieties here offered will surprise those who 
ave not seen the best new sorts.

We have to olfer this year four magnificent new Geraniums 
of our own raising. New Geraniums are so numerous thin 
we would not attempt to oiler these if they did not possess 
unusual merit. They are in tact the linestsortsof their color, 
andean truly be called ‘’Still’s” among Geraniums. Their 
growth is ncatund compact, and they bloom most profusely 
at all times, and the size of the flower and truss is probably 
tlie largest to be found among Geraniums. They are superb 
either for pot culture or bedding. 
Price 20 cents each ; or the .» for 75 cents. 
Jupiter, enormous double flower of the richest dark ver¬ 
milion. 
Mars, large, double flower glowing amaranth scarlet, rayed 
wit h intense violet scarlet, and orange yellow center. 
Venus, beautiful large single flower of i .effect shape, and 
light orange scarlet color. The liuest single Geranium in 
existence, either for bedding or pots. 
Saturn, a beaut iful large single flower exactly the color or 
Mars. A free grower and great bloomer, luakinga grand 
sort for bedding. 
Reumberta, though this line sort, docs not properly belong 
to the “Star” collection, we add it on account of its rare 
color and beauty. It is a large double flower borne pro¬ 
fusely in immense trusses, its color being u light yellow¬ 
ish orange scarlet, the nearest approach to a pure yellow 
yet seen in Geraniums.
