Pink 
HELEN VAN PELT WILSON—Soft light pink. 
Named by Ernest Rober for the author 
of GERANIUMS, the first well-accepted 
book on geraniums in this century. The 
plant is very strong. 
Rose-Pink 
*“GERTRUDE PEARSON — Large flowered, 
strong rose-pink with white in the center. 
The color is very bright and the free flower- 
ing habit makes this one of the brightest 
geraniums and best pinks for bedding pur- 
poses. Excellent plant. 
Painted Lady Varieties 
White centered, the two colors blending from one to the other. Several are leading pot 
plants. 
RAMONA NO. 2—White to light pink. A 
very profuse bloomer and a very compact 
plant. 
ALICE DE LA VERNE—White through light 
rose-pink. Good-sized flowers on low plant. 
*ALICE OF VINCENNES—White through light 
red. Good-sized flowers and a very depend- 
able bloomer. A leading pot plant. 
BERKELEY BELLE—White through very light 
red. A rounder floret than Alice of Vin- 
cennes. Popular through central part of the 
country. 
AMERICA—White through red. A little more 
color than Vincennes. 
SALMON QUEEN—White through brilliant 
salmon. Good color and a hardy plant. Good 
sales appeal. 
LADY DRYDEN—Scarlet red with white cen- 
ter which is mostly confined to two upper 
petals. We also grow Jules Verdin and 
Santa Monica which are very popular and 
almost identical to Lady Dryden. Lady Dry- 
den is one of the varieties which responds 
to artificial light. During November and 
December has 3 blossoms, the top rating. 
*PAINTED LADY—White through light ce- 
rise red. This is one of the most popular 
and lends its name to the type. We grow 
large quantities for the pot trade. 
NOTE: While we no longer grow a mixture of these varieties, and unrooted orders must be for a quantity 
of at least the minimum amount of each variety (50), we nevertheless will mix the Painted Lady types 
for the smaller growers in any number of 25 or more rooted, A Painted Lady mixture of the minimum 
quantity will be labeled as the mixture. 
Uuusaal Gerautums 
The varieties listed below are out of the ordinary and add life to any retailer’s line of 
stock. 
Most of the novelties are very easy plants to grow under greenhouse or proper home con- 
ditions, and are splendid profit items. Their scarcity is due to their more tender nature, which 
does not allow them to winter in cellars or stand the winter rains of frost-free areas. 
NOTE: 
Most novelties are replanted each spring and are ready for shipment after October Ist. These 
varieties are noted. Orders placed earlier will be booked and filled when stock is ready. 
ROOTED ONLY. Minimum of 10 of a kind, 25 at the 100 rate. 
CACTUS FLOWERED 
Interesting and very pretty, the flowers have long narrow petals sometimes straignt and 
flat, sometimes twisted or rolled; and the varieties vary from the Raggedy Ann of geraniums 
to that of a double poinsettia. 
NOEL (White Poinsettia)—Most beautiful of 
the cactus flowered. The curved-petaled 
double flowers are dignified by being pure 
white. The plant is good. Hybridized by 
Mrs. Harvey L. Smith of Los Altos, Calif- 
ornia, Noel was selected and introduced 
byeyVm? Evsschmidtsof Palo: Alto, “Galif:
