Henderson’s Giant Double Petunias 
are as large as Hollyhocks ; as double as double can be, with edges finely 
fringed, petals fluted and crinkled, intensifying and varying the colors 
with high lights and dark shadows, bringing out a richness and effect 
unmatched by crumpled velvet, which the flowers resemble. There is a 
variety of colors—seifs, blotched, veined, margined, etc.; in short, these 
double Petunias are unsurpassed by any other strain in the world.

“/ bought seed of your Giant Double Petunias last winter, and raised some beauti¬ 
ful single-flowering sorts and 60 fine double ones. I have never seen anything 
so fine in my experience of twenty years. I would not take $60.00 for the 60 
double plants.'* II. II. HUNTRESS, Manchester , N. II. 
Henderson’s Giant Single Petunias. 
A strain of incomparable beauty, size and luxuriance. Most of the flowers are ex¬ 
quisitely ruffled or fringed on the edges, and are of enormous dimensions (4 to 5 
inches across), but their great merits lie in the tremendous variety of colors, 
markings, veinings, blotches and stripings, in the most grotesque and beautiful com¬ 
binations; some with charming deep throats of yellow, white, black, green or maroon, 
running off into intricate veins. Some of the colors are rich and gorgeous and 
others of lovely delicate shades. (See cut.)

Large Single Blotched and Striped. 
Bedding Petunias are almost indispensable for garden decoration. They 
flower in a few weeks' time from seed and continue to grow, bud and bloom 
in such luxuriance until killed by frost,* k and are so brilliantly effective, whether 
massed in beds, borders or grown as individuals, that they are deservedly popular.

of Petunia, producing large, single flowers, hieroglyphically blotched, striped,
