Ui ^ALlrUKNIA rclUIYAS petals fluted and crinkled, intensifying 
and varying tlie colors with high lights and dark shadows, bringing out a rich¬ 
ness and effect unmatched by crumpled velvet, which t lie flowers resemble. There 
is a variety of colors—seifs, blotched, veined, margined, etc.; in short, these 
double Petunias are unmatched by any other strain in the world. 
Note. —Although this magnificent strain of double Petunias has been brought 
up to the pinnacle of perfection, yet our customers must not expect the seeds to 
produce over fifty per cent, of double-flowering plants; this, however, is an average 
much greater than is ever act ually obtained from any other strain. The weaker 
seedlings should lie carefully saved, as these invariably produce the finest 
double flowers. (See cut.)
