Dou ble callas, or callas with two spathes, are not uncommon, but one of this species sent to us by Mr. Slocombe, of New Haven, is a novelty.

In a calla flower, the white spathe is little more than a colored leaf, and in the so-called double cases, it is only the production of an additional leaf. In this case it is very pretty, the primary leaf being long and wavy, with a pretty mixture of green among the white. It is the additional leaf that makes the white spathe. If the habit could be fixed the florists would have a treasure.
