NEW GERANIUMS FOR 1955 
Standard Type 
PATIENCE. (Miller). Double. Purple-rose with 
white center. The large, well formed flowers are freely 
produced on a medium size plant that branches well. 
The flowers of PATIENCE are a little bluer than those of 
any other geranium that I have seen, but, of course, are 
not true blue, but purple-rose. $1.00 
Dwarf Geraniums 
MINX. (Miller). Double. Red and purple-crimson 
blend. Beautifuily formed, large flowers in many big 
clusters held well above the foliage. Color varies from 
red, through ruby, to purple-crimson in different parts 
of the flower, and depends somewhat on cultural condi- 
tions. The blackish-green leaves are nicely lobed and 
a little ruffled at the margins. The very bushy plant 
eventually gets 10 or 12 inches tall, but flowers so 
heavily that growth is rather slow. $2.50 
NUGGET. (Miller.) Golden tricolor. Olive green 
leaves with a wide, clear yellow border. The yellow 
color is held well even on the old leaves. Under very 
cool, sunny conditions there is a brown zone, but little 
or no zone under usual conditions. The plant is small 
and bushy. The smail, single, light shrimp flowers are 
rarely seen. Like the other Fancy-Leaved Dwarf Gera- 
niums, NucGGET is slow growing and a little difficult, and 
should be regarded as a collector’s plant. It is very dif- 
ferent from any other variety. $4.00 
Semi-Dwarf Geranium 
SPARKLE. (Miller). Semi-dwarf. Double. Bright, 
cheerful red. Large flowers in good clusters held well 
above the foliage. Very free flowering, small, bushy 
plant, with small, blackish-green leaves. Smaller and 
bushier than ordinary geraniums, but not so small as 
most of the dwarf varieties. Easily grown. SPARKLE is 
good for pots, window boxes, or garden. The color is 
just the red that is most looked for in geraniums, but sel- 
dom found, and is well set off by the handsome dark 
leaves. $1.50
