“ Helen Michell ” is Semi-Double, of the 
Clearest Possible Shade of Scarlet, 
is Early in Bloom, and Flowers 
Very Freely During the 
Entire Season 
It grows compact medium dwarf, wdth lustrous green 
foliage and throws up gigantic flower-heads very freely. 
We claim it to have the largest flower-heads of any of 
the Bedding Geraniums. The individual blooms fre¬ 
quently measure I'/z inches across. It is a common 
occurrence that a single 4-inch pot plant shows four 
fully open gigantic flow%r-heads, several half open and 
more in bud. B'or earliness and constancy of bloom 
it surnfl-sses all other Geraniums. We further claim 
ichell” is the Best Commercial Geranium

The Colvillei types are especially adapted for early 
forcing. They can be successfully grown in carnation tem¬ 
perature, in fact, among carnation plants. Our list includes 
some attractive odd shades.
