DOUBLE PETUNIA MRS. G. DAWSON COLEMAN." 



An entirely new and distinct shape, and without exaggeration tlie finest double white Petunia ever sent out. The 

 -flowers are large, very double, deeply fringed and of a pure white color. We sent out this variety in 1886 with an 

 assured feeling that it would meet with the approbation of plant lovers. The m.any flattering testimonials we have 

 received from all parts of the country, combined with our own observation of its merits, have led us to grow a large 

 quantity of it, so that we may be able to meet all demands. 25 cts. each ; $2.50 per dozen. 



DOUBLE PETUNIAS. 



For many years we have made a specialty of Double Petunias, growing from three to five thousand seedlings an- 

 juially, from wliich we select the best for propagation. We have discarded the plain-edged sorts, as the fringed and 

 laced varieties listed below are very much better.
