Single Geraniums.
Geraniums are the most easily grown and satisfactory of all flower plants and only the rose can vie with them in popularity. We have about 200 varieties growing at our place and test a large number of new sorts every year.
AUREOLE.-(Mad. Bruant.)-Plant is loaded with blooms and each floret is large, center being white, beautifully veined with carmine lake. A fine pot plant. Each 15c.
THE WONDER.-The flowers are the most intense, dazzling scarlet and are borne in great trusses of enormous size, measuring from 18 to 20 inches in circumference. Each 10c.
CAMILLE BERNARDIN.-Color is very attractive; upper petals are half white, succeeded by pink; lower petals base white followed by soft rosy pink with soft scarlet edge. Each 15c.
COLUMBIAN.-Flowers are brilliant scarlet with large, strong trusses; the habit of the plant is good and it may be classed as one of the freest bloomers in cultivation. Each 10c.
CARMEN SYLVA.-The grandest single pure white geranium in existence. Each 15c.
SOUVENIR DE MIRANDE.-It has nicely formed, round florets, upper petals cream white, with distinct salmon rose border; lower petals salmon rose, streaked with pure white; very free flowering and produces fine trusses of magnificent blooms. Each 10c, dozen 85c.

AMERICA.-Ideal variety for pot culture or bedding, white with salmon center. Each 25c.

Double Geraniums.
As a rule the double varieties do not produce quite as many trusses of bloom as the single, but each truss remains in bloom longer. They are therefore very satisfactory both for bedding and pot culture.

WM. LANGGUTH GERANIUM.-The plant is of short stocky growth, and the beautiful deep green leaves are bordered with a broad, pure snow white band, so that it is handsome even when not in bloom. It is, however, the most free flowering of any fancy foliage variety, and just think of it, the flowers are double, and this makes it a decided novelty. Clusters are extra large and of bright red color. Each 25c, 3 for 60c.
OLD GLORY GERANIUM.-Color is a clear, bright rosy pink, the upper petals are spotted with pure white which adds to the brilliancy of the pink. During the hottest, dryest midsummer weather "Old Glory" was as fresh and sweet as if just watered by an April shower. Ea. 15c, doz. $1.40.
VERA VEND.-Beautiful white, delicately marbled and striped with orange. One of the finest and most beautiful in the Aureole section and will be grown by all when known. Each 10c.
REMARKABLE.-A beautiful intensely double variety of dwarf compact growth. The florets, which look like little rosebuds, are of dark scarlet crimson color. Each 15c.
DOUBLE NEW LIFE.-The outer florets are large, of a brilliant red. In the center of these appear another semi-double floret, pure white in color effecting a very charming contrast, difficult to realize unless seen, and having the appearance of being produced artificially. Each 15c, doz. $1.50.
COLOSSUS.-The color is very beautiful, a rich shade of rosy crimson. Very free in bloom. One of the very largest and finest. Each 10c.
BRUANTI. One of the finest bedding sorts. As will be seen by our illustration the leaves are beautifully zoned and therefore showy at all times. Color of flowers bright, vermilion red; trusses exceptionally large and borne in immense balls often eight inches in diameter. Each 10c, dozen $1.00.
ALPINE BEAUTY. -An equisitely new double white. Each 10c.
MARVEL.-Rich crimson scarlet; large flowers and truss; free-flowering, one of the best bedding sorts. Each 10c.

NEW GERANIUM
CHAMELEON

CHAMELEON GERANIUM.-When first introduced it sold at $5.00 per plant. It is what might be called a "sport" or "freak" of nature, as it is quite erratic in its growth as shown by our illustration. Some flowers are red, some white, some pinkish salmon, and some clearly striped with the three colors. Frequently one plant will have on it flowers of all these colors at the same time. It is a free bloomer, bearing many trusses of large single flowers. The name Chameleon was suggested by its peculiar manner of changing color. Everyone who grows geraniums, and that means almost everybody, should try it. Each 25c.
LA FAVORITE.-What S. A. Nutt is among dark crimsons, La Favorite is among whites - without doubt the best double white geranium ever offered. Each 10c, doz. 85c. By express not prepaid, 50 for $2.75, 100 for $5.00.

This, the finest of dark crimson geraniums, has now taken the lead as a bedding variety, beiug used in the largest parks and public grounds of the country in preference to all others.
