NEW DOUBLE-FLOWERING ZONAL PELARGONIUMS. 
Mr. W. B. begs to intimate that he has taken in hand the Double-flowering Zonal 
Pelargoniums as he did the Single ones some six years since, and he ventm-es to think 
that a similar stride and improvement will now be made with them ; and that hence- 
forth, instead of having merely a few varieties of the Double as at present, there will be 
some hundreds, and among them every colom’ and shade peculiar to the ordinary Zonal 
section. 
In taking up the hj'bridisiug and raising of the double-flowering section, Mr. W. B. 
has done so partly from the stimulus afl'orded by the immense demand for the few 
comparatively worthless Double kinds now in» cultivation, but principally from the 
impression that ultimately the Double varieties will tijiie an important pai-t in decorative 
horticulture, and especially for bedding, cultivating in pots or vases, and all uses for 
which cut flowers are apphed. 
The principal reason why Double-flowering Pelargoniums will be so popular is, 
that the blossoms do not shed their petals ; hence they last in flower a long time, and 
are useful in a variety of ways where the single kinds are almost unserviceable. 
Mr. W. B. has raised several thousand Seedlings of the Double-flowering kinds, 
and Visitors to his Establishment will be able to inspect them during the Flowering 
Season.
