DOUBLE PETUNIA. 
PETUNIA. 
“ Petunias are fair y the day-lily rare , 
The bud o’ the rose as sweet as it's bonnie." 
Few plants give better satisfaction where a mass of 
flowers is desired than the Petunia, especially the sin- 
kIc varieties. They flower from the time they are 
planted in spring, until killed by frost. The double 
varieties are also excellent for bedding, but they do 
not produce their flowers in such wonderful profusion 
as the single kinds do. For pot culture they are among 
the most desirable plants we have. The flowers are 
beautiful, many of the varieties showing blooms that 
are as large and handsomely formed as the Camellia. 
A well grown plant is always in bloom. 
Petunia, “Double, per dozen, $3.00; 20 cents each. 
Single, per dozen, $1.50; 15 cents each. 
OTHONNA. 
OTHONNA. 
A charming basket plant, with 
cylindrical leaves and pretty 
star-shaped, yellow flowers, 
blooming almost constantly. 
Habit drooping, and should be 
always grown in a hanging pot, 
basket, or on a bracket. Its 
foliage is fleshy, like that of the 
Mesembryanthemum, but deli¬ 
cate and graceful, and makes 
a rapid growth.

Two for 25 cents , 
TUBEROSE. 
The Tuberose is 
a beautiful, pure 
white, wax-like, 
very sweet-scent¬ 
ed, double flower, 
growing on tall 
stems?, each stem 
bearing a dozen or 
more dowel’s. In 
cold latitudes, ob¬ 
tain tubers early, 
plant them in 
boxes of earth, 
and keep in a 
warm place in the 
house; when warm 
weather, trans¬ 
plant to the gar¬ 
den. Those who 
want this beauti¬ 
ful flower in early 
winter, can plant 
a few bulbs in pots 
in July or August, 
sink them to the 
rim in earth in the 
garden, where 
they can remain 
until the cool 
nights of autumn, 
then remove to 
the house. Our 
Tuberoses are all 
of our own grow¬ 
ing, and splendid 
bulbs. 
^iew Dwarf Tuberose “Pearl,” per dozen, 75 cents; half- 
dozen, 40 cents; three tubers, 25 cents ; each. 10 
“ The tuberose , with her silvery light. 
That in the Gardens of Malay , 
Is called the Mistress of the Night, 
So like a bi'ide , scented aml bl ight; 
She comes out when the sun's away." 
Moore, Lalla Rookh.
