LANTANAS^ 
it JAN 10 ix 
Department of Arnlnalture. 
Although we have been increasing our production of Lantanas in the past several 
years, the demand has constantly exceeded the supply. For the coming season we have 
one hundred and fifty thousand plants in prime condition for spring sales. Every 
florist can handle this plant on a profitable basis—both as a blooming pot plant and as 
a bedding subject. For general spring sales, shift the plants into 3 or 4 inch pots. We 
have added several new varieties this year that are very outstanding. 
SENSATION (NEW) 
Offered for the first time. Large flowers of lav¬ 
ender and yellow. Medium dwarf in growth. Every¬ 
one admires Sensation, as its coloring is most bril¬ 
liant out of doors. Fine for both pots and bedding. 
CRAIGI 
A comparatively new variety that we consider the 
best of all varieties for pot blooming. Very dwarf 
in growth (more dwarf than M. Schmidt) and much 
deeper in color than any of the red varieties. For 
general usefulness this is the best variety as it com¬ 
bines dwarfness with excellent color and floriferous- 
ness. i 
M. SCHMIDT 
For years M. Schmidt has been the most popular 
of all Lantanas. It is medium dwarf in growth, the 
plants being covered with flowers all through the 
summer months. Red, orange, and yellow shades 
combine to make a general orange effect. Fine for 
both pots and bedding. 
TETHYS 
Tethys is the most widely grown of the yellow 
varieties. Flowers of bright lemon yellow produced 
in great abundance. This is our favorite yellow as 
it has every desired characteristic that we like in a 
Lantana. Fine for both pots and bedding. 
ALBA PERFECTA 
There is always a demand for white Lantanas. 
This is the best pure white variety. Fine for both 
pots and bedding. 
RADIATION 
We find that Radiation and M. Schmidt are identi¬ 
cal. Therefore, those who order Radiation will re¬ 
ceive the true M. Schmidt strain. 
GOLDEN PLUME (NEW) 
A new variety with beautiful orange yellow 
flowers. Fine for both pots and bedding. Medium 
dwarf in growth. 
COMTE DE BIENCOURT 
Large flowers of lavender pink abundantly pro¬ 
duced. Tall in growth but with proper pinching is 
very fine for pot blooming. 
LA PLEUR cTOR 
This variety is the best of the golden yellow Lan¬ 
tanas. Very dwarf in habit—more so than any 
other variety. Its clear golden yellow flowers are 
produced in great profusion all through the sum¬ 
mer months. Fine for both pots and bedding. 
SOUTHERN 
In recent years, Southern has become one of the 
more popular varieties, because of the beauty of its 
coloring. The variety is dwarf in growth and the 
flowers are a combination of pink and yellow that 
is distinctly beautiful. Fine for both pots and 
bedding. 
JACOB SCHULTZ 
This variety has been grown for many years and 
is still considered one of the best. It is inclined to 
be very vigorous and taller than others but there 
are many places where these features are desirable. 
Flowers combine red and yellow to give a general 
orange effect. If properly pinched, very fine for pots. 
WEEPING LANTANA 
A Drooping Plant of Great Beauty. One of the 
finest vining or drooping plants grown. The plant 
has a most graceful drooping habit, grows very rap¬ 
idly and flowers continually summer and winter, 
producing large clusters of delicate lilac pink flowers. 
DWARF BEAUTY (NEW) 
One of the best new Lantanas. Medium dwarf in 
growth. Plant is covered at all times with orange, 
pink and yellow flowers. Probably by calling this 
variety a “Dwarf Biencourt” we come more closely 
to an adequate description.
