POINSETTIA GERANIUM 
This great novelty is ideal for either the garden or for grow¬ 
ing indoors as a pot plant. As its name implies, the individual 
florets of Salzer’s Poinsettia Geranium resemble miniature 
Poinsettias; the clusters are of good size and are borne in pro¬ 
fusion. 
The flowers are bright scarlet in color and a mature plant 
in full bloom makes a brilliant display. The blooms are borne 
well above the bright glossy green foliage, as you will notice 
in the illustration. We know of no other plant novelty of 
recent years that is so distinctly different as is this Poinsettia 
Geranium. 
Each, 40c; 3 for $1.10; 6 for $1.95; dozen, $3.75, postpaid. 
If wanted in paper pot and soil, add 10c per plant extra.
