DOUBLE-FLOWERED IVY-LEAF PELARGONIUMS 
^gj|T seeing bat the other day that there were no double-floweringjlvy-leaf Geraniums, yet now we hare 
2gj. many and more double than a rose, all distinct, and many of them most valuable for cnt, flowers ; 
few people have an idea, and very few can form the slightest conception, what grand kinds we 
have in this family, and what splendid specimen plants they make trained on trellises ; and what is 
more surprising, all have been introduced within the last few years, and in fact, no class of plants 
has made such rapid progress in so short a time. The stands" of cut blooms exhibited by us at 
numerous shows were a marvel for the acquisitions they contained, including many of the following 
varieties. Our selection in 60-sized pots, 5s. per doz.
