 Large Flowering. 



Flowers of the double variety make a grand display, re- 

 maining open all day in the burning sun. 



PETUNIA. 



A highly ornamental and profuse flowering, easily cultivated garden favor- 

 ite. The brilliancy and variety of its colors, combined with the duration of its 

 blooming period, render it invaluable for planting out in beds or mixed bor- 

 ders. The seeds of the double Petunia do not possess as much vitality as those 

 of the single, and a good deal of care must be used to get them to germinate; 

 nor will they all come double. H. H. P.
