A WONDERFUL PLANT. 
This new and wonderful Pansy Geranium is of the easi¬ 
est growth, dwarf In habit, and literally covered with 
flowers all the time, and as it requires little or no atten¬ 
tion, it is invaluable as a window plant. The coloring 
and markings of the flowers are most extraordinary—light 
pink, white, dark purple, black, etc., almost rivaling the 
Pansy in uniqueness of flower. It is this combination of 
coloring which obtained for it the popular name of Pansy 
Geranium. $1.00 per dozen; $7.50 per hundred. 
Easter Greeting Set 
These are the latest varieties and are practically ever- 
blooming; do not fail to try these grand varieties. 
EASTER GREETING—This new ever-biooming Pelargoni¬ 
um was shown at the Mannheim horticultural exhibition 
in Germany. Planted out as a bedding plant and bloom¬ 
ed continually until late in the fall. It will prove the 
forerunner of a new race of ever-blooming kinds, as it 
rivals the Orchids in beauty. The following description 
is from the German introducer, Carl Faiss; “This new 
species is the earliest of all Pelargoniums, with enor¬ 
mous florets and clusters, having light green foliage and 
of dwarf, robust growth. It blooms from March until 
fall. The florets are fiery amaranth-red, with five large, 
regular shaped spots. The first and only kind to bloom 
as well bedded out as in pots, and to do so all summer.”
