WM. LANGGUTH GERANIUM.
This new silver-leaved geranium is a beautiful variety. 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, free flowering for a 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, showing magnificently against the white foliage. Each 20c, 3 for 50c.

TREGO GERANIUM.
This geranium is a decided novelty as well as one of the strongest growing and most free flowering geraniums. It is of robust, compact habit, regular in form. The trusses are of immense size, produced in profusion and borne on stiff stems held well above the foliage. The individual florets frequently measure 2½ inches in diameter, semi-double, and of an intense brilliant, almost dazzling, scarlet color. Each 15c, dozen $1.50.

SUNRAY FUCHSIA.
A novelty in the Fuchsia family. Very different from the other varieties in that their beauty lies in the foliage, from which it gets its name. All the colors of the sunset, clear yellow, golden bronze and red are combined in the most effective way to make a pretty foliage plant. Each 25c.

LEOPARD GERANIUM.
A new orchid flowered ivy-leaved variety. The flower is large, two inches in diameter, semi-double, and borne in medium size trusses. The color is remarkable, being fully as rich and distinct as an orchid. The ground is a clear, lilac pink, the upper petals being heavily blotched with deep crimson and usually marked with distinct maroon dots. This will make one of the most distinct basket plants in cultivation. It is a strong, vigorous grower and blooms all winter. Each 20c.

CHAMELEON GERANIUM.
An Improved Single New Life.--This was first sent out a number of years ago, but owing to its slow propagation was nearly lost and it has not been prominently offered recently. When first introduced 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; others will bloom for months showing only one of these colors then changing to some other hue. Bears many trusses of large single flowers. Its name was suggested by its peculiar way of changing color. Each 20c.

The entire collection of six choice plants, worth $1.10, for 65c.
SUNRISE.--This grand new rose has taken first honors in the cut flower shows. When in bud form it is a deep coppery pink color, but as the blossom opens the inner side of petals shade from clear yellow to deep copper color thus making a pleasing color effect. The flower has the true Bon Silene fragrance and is desirable both in bud and when in full bloom. Each 20c.
BESSIE BROWN.--This is called by rose specialists the finest new variety which has been brought out for many years past. It is a hybrid tea variety which originated in England. Blooms are very large in size, full double and of perfect shape; color, creamy white flushed and tinged with pink, especially at the edges of the petals, which are shell-shaped. Blooms freely. Each 20c.
HELEN GOULD.--Has proven itself to be the strongest growing, freest blooming and largest flowering hardy rose in existence. It is better for general planting than the American Beauty. The buds are beautifully shaped, long and pointed; the flowers are full and perfectly double; color rich rosy crimson, particularly bright and glowing; also a good winter bloomer. Each 15c.
FRANCES E. WILLARD.--Undoubtedly the best pure white everblooming rose ever introduced. Buds and flowers are of large size, perfect form, pure snow-white color. It is delightfully fragrant and blooms freely. Plant is a strong vigorous grower. Each 15c.
ROGER LAMBERLIN.--The most exquisitely beautiful and rich colored rose ever sent out and in fact it is so very much different from all other varieties that few persons suspect that it is a rose. Each 20c.
TULIP ROSE.--(Madam de Watteville.)--Has created a great sensation in Europe. The flower when half open is the shape of a tulip, and also of a rich variegated color. It is a remarkable shade of cream yellow suffused with rosy blush. Petals are large and each is broadly bordered with bright crimson; feathery shaded. Each 20c.
COLLECTION.--The above Six Roses for 65 cents.
