DOUBLE VARIETIES 
As you know, double means much more than just twice as many 
petals. Many double blossoms have 15 to 20 tightly packed petals 
in them. Flowers resemble a small rose in shape and lend an entirely 
different, richer appearance to the whole plant. Here is, we believe, 
the most complete list of doubles ever offered, all of them are im- 
provements over earlier violets in degree of double-ness, robust growth 
and profuse bloom.

with an interesting, crinkled leaf. Blossoms are royal purple, crinkled, 
very double, and of large size, giving the plant an entirely distinctive 
quality. Leaves are sharply tapered and softly colored. The ruffled 
leaves and flowers give a gay, airy, light-hearted look. You'll fall in 
love with Double Margaret on sight!........................ $1.50
