NEW DOUBLE WHITE PERPETUAL FLOWERING VIO- 
I LET, SWANLEY WHITE, or QUEEN OF FRAGRANCE. 
Of all the varied and beautiful novelties in plants which are being Introduced, 
this is one of the best. As a plant for pot culture in the house tor Winter and Spring 
blooming, or for planting in the garden or in frames, it is equally valuable. In pots 
It grows luxuriantly and is loaded with flowers; in the garden with slight protec¬ 
tion, and greets us in early Spring with a profusion of its large, snowy, sweet- 
scented b'ossoms. The growth of the plant is vigorous and healthy, bearing in great 
numbers very large, perfectly double flowers of pure snowy whiteness and unex¬ 
celled fragrance. They can be grown in pots or in the open ground. If desired par¬ 
ticularly for Winter flowering, they do best if planted out in the Spring and potted 
in September, and if the buds are pinched off during the Summer the plants will be 
all the stronger lor Winter. It is not uncommon for a plant to have as many as fifty 
large flowers open at once, and they present a beautiful sight and perfume a whole 
room. Though this Violet is called “ Perpetual,” it is difficult to get it to bloom 
during hot weather. It blooms elegantly in the Fall, Winter and Spring.
