and stripings, in the most grotesque and beautiful combinations; 



some with charming deep throat of yellow, white, black, green or 



maroon, running off into intricate veins. Some of the colors are 



rich and gorgeous and others of lovely delicate shades.

Double Self Seeding Petunias 



This new German strain is unique from the fact that the double flowers produce seed insuring a larger 

 percentage of double flowering plants (about 609c) than can be raised from singles artificially pollenized 

 from double flowers which is necessary in producing all other double petunias from seed. The flowers of these 

 Double Self Seeding Petunias are large — double — and include a variety of different colors Pkt. 30c.
