HENDERSON'S NE'W LARGE FLO"WERING DOUBLE PETUNIAS. This strain we believe to be the 

 finest in the world, and will produce a large percentage of double, having been hand feitilized by a new pro- 

 cess, which is far superior to the usual method with a camel's hair brush. We estimate that this seed has cost 

 us not less than $200 per ounce, and will produce large double flowers of exquisite new colors, marked, 



blotched, striped, tinted and veined, many of which will be beautifully fringed. Mixed Colors. (See cut.) 25
