blooms with the greatest prolusion, light orange scarlet flowers in flne, large 
trusses. Stands the hottest sun, and is always full of bloom.

Its glossy, velvety color cannot be excelled. 
W. K. Harris.—Blush, pale red center, flne large, round flowers. 
William Cullen Bryant.—The finest shaped single flowered Geranium known. 
Each floret on strong plants will measure two inches across. Color a soft, rich, 
pure scarlet. The thickness 
of petal and size of flower 
makes it appear as if stamped 
out of thick velvet. The 
trusses are large. 
Wood Nymph.—Bright, clear 
pink, with lighter markings 
on upper petals. A beauti¬ 
ful shade. 
Whit© Vesuvius.—Pure white, 
large round petals, profuse

DOUBLE GERANI¬ 
UMS. 
The Double Geraniums have 
now been in cultivation for a 
number of years, and at the 
present time include about every 
desirable color, even to pure 
white. Their general habit and 
appearance is similar to the Sin¬ 
gle Geraniums. The plants are 
equally valuable, whether em¬ 
ployed for bedding or for growing 
in pots. The Double Geraniums 
have been wonderfully improved 
the past few years, and are in 
every way proving formidable 
rivals to the Single Geraniums, 
not only as to variety in color, 
but also as to free flowering 
qualities, and as to dwarf 
branching habit. So excellent 
are many of the sorts of the pres¬ 
ent day that those who grow 
flowers tor sale depend largely on 
these for contributing lively col¬ 
ors to their cut-flowers and bou¬ 
quets. When well grown, it is 
not rare to find flowers as large 
and full as a carnation, while the 
colors are brighter than that fa¬ 
vorite flower. They are very fine 
for Winter blooming, lasting 
much longer than the single va¬ 
rieties. (See page 5 for desira¬ 
ble collections.) 
Price, 10 cents each, except 
where noted. When selection 
is left to me, I will send sixteen flne sorts free by mail for $1.25. To any 
one who may wish a larger size, I have grown twenty-five of the best sorts in 
three-inch pots, that I offer at 20 cents each, or $2.25 per dozen. I ran only 
furnish this size of my selection.
