FLOWERING STANDARDS 
Graceful, tree-like plants, iust formal enough to give dignity and Old-World charm to 
well-planned gardens. They are trained to one upright stem, upon which a rounded top is 
formed and from which the blooms sparkle at the level of the eye, relieving the monotony of 
uniformly level beds. 
They come to you with splendid, well-formed heads, and need only occasional pinching 
to keep them in shape. Their general cultural requirements are the same as those of the 
usual forms of these plants. In cool climates these standards should be lifted at the approach 
of winter and stored like geraniums. Treated thus, they will gain in beauty and impressiveness 
from year to year. 
We offer five varieties trained in this form.

salmon-pink blooms of surpassing elegance.

Decorative Palms 
No collection of plants is complete without 
Palms. Their bold, majestic, yet graceful 
foliage lends a grandeur and magnificence 
that cannot be obtained from any other class 
of plants, and no decoration, whether in the 
conservatory, hall, or living-room, is com¬ 
plete without them.
