The double white Darnels Violets growethnotfo great in any part thereof, nor lo high as the (ingle doth, 
i except in the flowers, which being very thicke of leaves, of a pure white colour, and many handing in a duller,

leffer leaves of afrelher greene colour, little or nothing flipped about theedges, and more tender; but the 
branches grow more plcntifull, and more eafie to be flipped and tranfplanted, than the fingle kinde, but giveth 
no feeds, as many other plants doe, that carry double flowers, and is more tender to be kept in the Win¬ 
ter.
