As will be noticed the petals^are fringed in a delicately regular manner and curves inwards thus helping the large double flower to appear still more double. The flower is of enormous size, perfect^form, has good firm calyx and is of pure snowy white. Blooms freely. Is also of special value for win- ter blooming in the house. A strong, vigorous, erect grower and promises to be- come very popular. Each 15c. WHITE PHENOMENAL FUCHSIA. Most of our patrons are acquainted with Fuchsia Phenomenal, and fcnowwhat a very desirable variety it is. This variety is fully as large, some- times three inches across, and the flowers are double white, veined at base with carmine. Tube and sepals bright carmine.

These flowers have been grown to the size of a small tea cup and plants are so full of handsome blooms as to resemble a perfect ball in shape. You will be amazed at the rare qualities possessed by this magnificent Fuchsia for words cannot convey half the beauties of this floral gem. Never out of bloom, and weighted down with flowers. Each 15c. E
