SS c calling attention to our Double 
Fringed Petunias, we feel a par- 
donable pride in alluding to our 
successful efforts, extending over a 
number of years, towards improving 
this very useful and beautiful race of 
plants. To none which we cultivate do 
we devote more care and labor, employ- 
ing only the most skillful hands, and 
hybridizing the tens of thousands of 
flowers by hand, a slow and expensive process, 
but justified by the results. When it is consid- 
ered that the varieties offered were selected 
from over a thousand plants, and that they, in 
turn, are a selection from over ten thousand 
seedlings, some estimate can be formed of the scrupulous 
and watchful care we exercise in selecting. They are of the 
easiest culture, growing in any soil which will maintain plant 
life, and producing the most showy flowers in wonderful 
profusion. The flowers are very useful for table decoration, laid on 
* a flat dish and garnished with their own foliage.

SEA FOA M The greatest achievement of the hybridizer in Double 
: Petunias is to produce a fine double fringed variety of 
a pure white; this we have occasionally succeeded in doing, but never 
have we obtained one that for purity of color, form, size and vigor of growth was the 
superior of ‘‘Sea Foam.”
