Text Appearing Before Image:
For single plants in pots, for window, conservatory or veranda, almost any of the Geraniums do excellently except a few of the heavy-wooded doubles, which need too much room, and the singles, which as a class shatter too quickly, although some of them are good. It is for this use that the new "Cactus" type will prove a most valuable addition to our list of house plants; and the "Cyclops" also are suited for culture in this way on account of the great beauty of the individual flowers. The Ivies too are prized highly when cut back to induce a stocky growth, well branched. They are very profuse bloomers. Silver-leafed S. A. Nutt is one of the handsomest pot plants imaginable, and others of the variegated and tricolored class, which have proved fairly good bloomers, make fine single specimens. Two great points in favor of Geraniums as house plants are the ease
