Bedding Petunias. 



Large Single Blotched and Striped. 



Bedding Petunias are almost indispensable 

 for garden decoration. They flower in a few 

 weeks' time from seed and continue to grow, 

 bud and bloom in luxuriance until frost, and 

 are brilliantly effective massed in beds or 

 borders. The strain of seed we herewith 

 offer is our very finest selection from this type 

 of Petunia, producing large, single flowers, 

 blotched, striped, netted, etc., including all 

 the Petunia colors, cherry, pink, crimson, 

 white, purple, rose, etc.; height, 1 foot. 

 Mixed Colors, per 1,000 seeds, 50c; Pkt. 10c. 



Compact Bedding Petunias. 



(P. Nana Compacta Multiflora.) 

 Dense, bushy little plants, only about 8 

 inches high; the flowers, while not large, re- 

 main boldly expanded, and in their profusion 

 fairly hide the plants for months; beautiful 

 for garden beds, borders and edgings, and 

 also beautiful subjects grown in pots. 

 Dwarf Inimitable, cherry-red, with a white, 



star-like throat Pkt. 10c. 



Pink Mound, rosy-pink, white throat. 10c. 

 Snowball, white flowers in profusion; 



a veritable "Snowball" Pkt. 10c.

 including pink, rose, carmine, lilac, white, 

 etc., some being margined, flaked or marbled 

 with other colors Pkt. 10c.

 ers of noble form. The widely open throat 

 of rich golden-yellow — untarnished by 

 veins or netting — ex-

 dazzling 

 white.
