THE APARTMENT GERANIUM—A charming miniature, just 
right for the sunny window of a smal] apartment or single

PIGMY. Plants, each $1.00. 
THE IVY GERANIUMS—Shining, crispy leaves of ivy form. 
The slender-stemmed plants have decumbent tendencies, so 
are valued for window boxes, hanging baskets, shelves. Kept 
pinched back a bit, they make good window pot plants, too. 
Because of the slender, brittle stems, we ship smaller plants 
of these than of the others. They will take hold quickly.

ivy yeaves of dark green. Each 50c. CAESAR FRANK—Fine, 
semi-double flowers of brilliant rose pink. Good ivy foliage.

each with a wide edge of ivory white. When the soil becomes 
dry, the white edges of the lower leaves turn rosy pink, this 
pink suffusion continuing from leaf to leaf as long as the dry- 
ing continues. An odd beauty that doesn’t look like a Geranium 
at all. Pretty, salmon-colored flowers. Each 70c. OFFER 542DN 
—One plant each of the 3 for $1.55.

They yield long display of handsome bloom, wintering 
without any difficulty well north, and giving a pleasant touch 
to the rock garden, or the border. All will stand full sun but 
all are shade-tolerant. Please don’t confuse them with the 
frost-tender bedding or pot plants that the florist calls ‘‘Ge- 
ranium,”’ for those are technically Pelargoniums. The true
