Diseased Petunias. 



Referring to your answer to W. N. T., 

 I beg to say that I have often noticed 

 the green excrescence on old petunia 

 plants. I break them off and burn them. 

 I have never noticed that cuttings from 

 the same plants were similarly affected. 

 J have grown double petunias from seeds 

 for many years, both from seeds of my 

 own raising and from those bought of 

 other florists, and while the plants are 

 usually healthy, it is seldom I get any- 

 thing choice and very rarely that I se- 

 cure anything of unusual merit. I grow 

 my best varieties year after year from 

 cuttings. I suppose they will run out 

 some time, but I would not like to trust 

 to seeds to produce anything like the 

 old Pink Beauty, or even a fine frilled 

 fringed single rose-colored variety that 

 I have perpetuated several years from 

 cuttings and use summers; fertilizing the 

 blossoms with pollen from double varie- 

 ties to raise double seeds. I would not 

 advise anyone to discard a really choice 

 petunia under expectation of getting 

 something equally good from seed. I 

 write from experience extending over a 

 period of about twenty years.
