DOUBLE. 
The Double Geraniums have been wonderfully im. 
proved the past few years. We now have them of as 
many and as beautiful colors as the single. For bedding 
they are about as good every way as the single, and for 
cutting much better. The white varieties of Geraniums 
both single and double have shown a marked improve¬ 
ment, some of which hold their pure color without 
showing the slightest tinge of pink. The double Gera¬ 
niums bear very large trusses of flowers, forming solid 
masses, and endure the sun as well as the single,
