'I'he improvements in this class during the past few years are perfectly wonder- ful, forming, as they now do, such douhleness and deeply cut or fringed petals as render them highly effective and beautiful decaration plants; half hardy perennials IVew Double Fringed Grandiflora Fimber- ata. This strain always yields 25 to 30 percent, of double flowers, fringed; rich and delicate tints, and variegated in great variety; seldom fails to receive the highest praise, 50 IVew Double Dwarf Robnsta Flora Plena.
