Dreer's Gold Medal Hybrid Delphiniums New Dcuble-flowering Cosmos NE^W DOUBEE-FEOWERING COSMOS Some years since a few individual plants of Cosmos showed evidence of producing double flowers, but it has taken a great deal of care and patience to perfect the strain now offered. The flowers vary considerably in their degree of doubleness, some being absolutely double, while others, like those shown in our illustration, have a frill or collar surrounding the dou- ble disc, and while we think this is the most artisMc, they are beautiful in either form. The plants have somewhat heavier, less cut foliage than the regular single-flowering type, so that the fact that they will produce dou- ble flowers can be determined when the seedlings are quite small. 2081 Double Crimson.
