A. B. C. "SPECIAL FLORISTS' STRAINS" 
Giants of California, "The World's Best Double." This 
magnificent new group is so marked in improvement that 
we believe they will head the list in florists' forcing 
Stocks in the very near future. Giants of California are 
very early flowering, with a high percentage of double 
mammoth flowers, and they have the branching habit 
of the Bismarck. If planted close, they will attain the 
height of 2 V 2 to 3 feet. We feel this strain justifies our 
highest recommendation.
