MICHELL’S FORCING 
HYDRANGEAS 
Adiantum Gloriosum 
ADIANTUM GLORIOSUM (Ready in August) 
(Glorified Maiden Hair Fern) 
This variety is frequently referred to as the Hardy Maiden 
Hair Fern; it combines the ruggedness of the Cuneatum type 
while possessing the grace and beauty of the Farleyense type, yet 
not being near so delicate; for shipping it carries well and makes 
a splendid table decoration. 3-inch pots, per dozen, 15.00. 
GERANIUM, HELEN MICHELL 
Ready in December 
Grows compact, medium dwarf, with 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 frequently measure 2 y 2 inches across. It 
is a common occurrence that a single 4-inch pot plant shows four 
fully open gigantic flower-heads, several half open and more in 
bud. We further claim that “Helen Michell” is the best 
Commercial Scarlet Geranium in existence. Prices, 2}4-inch 
pots, 11.50 per doz.; per 100, $7.50; 250 for $18.50; $36.00 per 
500; per 1000, $70.00. 
For several years we have been making a 
specialty of growing Hydrangeas for the florist’s 
trade. The list of commercial varieties has 
become so voluminous that we have combed it 
thoroughly with the result we are offering what we consider the 
best sorts for the commercial grower to handle. We grow these 
in great numbers and feel certain the quality of our plants will 
please the buyer. The 234-inch stock is especially desirable for 
growing on.
