PETUNIA 



Useful and highly ornamental free flowering plants, 

 growing almost anywhere, producing an abundance of 

 briUiant colored flowers throughout the season until 

 frost. Care should be taken with seeds of the double 

 sorts, as they do not germinate as easily as the single, 

 nor will they all produce double flowers.

DOUBLE LARGE-FLOWERING PETUNIAS 



Our strains of double flowering Petunias are unsurpassed for beauty 

 and size of flowers and produce a large percentage of double flowers. 

 It is well known that seed saved from the most carefully hybridized 

 flowers produce but a small percentage of double flowers, the balance 

 being single of unusually fine quality. The weaker seedhngs should be 

 carefully saved, as these invariably produce the finest double flowers. 

 The same is true of the single sorts, the large, strong seedlings usually 

 being weedy, while the, at first, weaker seedlings produce the very 

 finest flowers of best colorings. It is best to sow Petunias indoors and 

 transplant to the open in May. The Single Bedding kinds can be sown 

 right out of doors in May.
