BALCONY PETUNIAS 
A splendid large and free flowering type either 
for window boxes, vases, hanging baskets, etc., 
the flowers average 3 inches across and make a 
very effective display. 
The increasing popularity of the large flowered 
Petunias with their brilliant coloring, fringed and 
waved edges of the fluffy ruffles, beautiful veining 
and rich color contrasts in many of the newer pro- 
ductions, together with their extremely large blos- 
soms, makes them one of the most desirable bed- 
ding plants. They also excel all other flowering 
plants for the window box, producing a _ great 
wealth of bloom the entire summer.
