GIANT DOUBLE GERBERAS 
The long blooming period of these Gerberas (not less than ten months in California), their mar- 
velous keeping quality as a cut flower plus their exquisite effect as a decorative subject place

ties tested for production and keeping quality of flowers, and believe each one of them to be 
the best in its color class: Marquita (yellow); La Paloma (pink); Diablo (red); La Golondrina 
(orange). Strong Divisions or 4” Potted Plants, Each 75¢— 10 Assorted for $6.75.
