The above variety is an origination of Mr. T. Sakata. 
The following Double variety is a splendid strain producing an 
average of 60 to 70 per cent doubles. 
NOTE. It is important not to discard the small seedlings, as these 
usually produce the best double flowers. 
Double Fringed, Mixed. Superbly colored flowers of mammoth size. 
500 seeds 75c.; $1.50 per 1000 seeds 
Please note. Double Petunias are a highly bred type, and the 
seed is not as vigorous in growth as that of single strains. Seed of 
all our Double Petunias has been carefully tested in soil and the 
germination has been found to average 70 to 80 per cent. For this rea¬ 
son, and because of its high cost, we cannot entertain claims on non¬ 
germination of this seed, or requests for replacements. If carefully 
handled, we know the seed will grow.
