possess gardens and enjoy the superb stretches of color obtainable with them. The newer 
and improved types which we offer are exceedingly fine and even with the most ordi¬ 
nary attention may be relied upon to produce an uninterrupted display of bloom from 
early spring to late autumn.

CULTURAL NOTES—Although of easiest cul¬ 
ture, Geraniums respond in a marked degree to 
proper treatment. Do not plant them in shade or 
they become leggy. Do not plant them in soil 
too heavily manured. Pinch out the tips in early 
growth to induce branching. Grow them in pots 
in a fairly light soil, not too rich, for interior 
decorating.
