PELARGONIUMS — Martha Washington Geraniums 
Although we associate Pelargoniums with grandmother, and 
Early American gardens, they come to us from far-off Africa. 
Even though the early introductions were far inferior to the 
_ gorgeous azalea-like flowers of the present day plant, they met 
with instant favor. Their popularity has been steadily increasing 
and today we find them in great demand as potted plants for 
house or garden decoration. 
In addition to being very decorative they are among the easiest 
of plants to grow. Any reasonably good soil, not too heavy, with 
occasional feedings of bone meal, will give excellent results. 
Half to full day sun and enough water to keep them barely 
damp is all they ask. 
Plants are priced as follows unless otherwise marked: 3-inch 
pots, 20c each, $2.00 per dozen; 4-inch pots, 35c each, $3.50 per 
_ dozen; specimen plants in 6-inch pans, 50c to 75c each.
