PELARGONIUMS 
(Lady Washingtons) 
Diener's Newest Everflowering Hybrids 
These new Pelargoniums, all our own creations, 
are second and third generation crosses from Easter- 
greeting. The flowers are over twice larger than the 
Eastergreeting type and flower the whole year 
around, which makes them all the more valuable. The 
plants are of semi-dwarf growth and in flowering re¬ 
semble Azaleas. For those who grow pot plants or for 
bedding these are very valuable and easy sellers in 
any size, as they flower from cuttings and keep on 
flowering continually. 
Through the introduction of these new varieties 
Pelargoniums will take on a new popularity, as the 
colors and size are so unusual and appealing.

ment will be made by Railway Express Agency, charges
