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 floW' 

 ered Petunias with their brilliant coloring, 

 fringed and waved edges of the fluffy ruffles, 

 beautiful veining and rich color contrasts in 

 many of the newer productions, together with 

 their extremely large blossoms, makes them one 

 of the most desirable bedding plants. They. also 

 excel all other flowering plants for the window 

 box, producing a great wealth of bloom the 

 entire summer.

PETUNIA FLUFFY RUFFLES 



A valuable addition to the list of large flow- 

 ering Petunias. Although the flowers are not 

 quite as large as Giants of CaHfornia, they cover 

 a wider range of colors and markings, all being 

 beautifully fringed and ruffled. Pkt., 25c. 



PETUNIA NANA ERECTA 

 VIOLACEA 



A decided acquisition. The plants are of dwarf 

 compact habit, bearing beautiful, small steel blue 

 or deep violet flowers, with no trace of magenta 

 in the greatest profusion throughout the entire 

 season. A splendid variety for window boxes 

 and borders. Pkt., 25c.
