1632 Giant Elk's Purple 



The rich, deep velvety purple flow- 

 ers which give a wonderful contrast 

 to the attractive green foliage are of 

 such beauty that we decided to add 

 tliis variety to our catalog. The in- 

 dividual flowers are of extra large 

 size and heavy te.xture. We con- 

 sider this the finest purple Petunia 

 ever introduced in the giant flower- 

 ing class. It should be in every 

 garden. Pkt. 25c; 1/128 oz. 65c; 

 1/64 oz. SI. 10. 



1645 Single Fringed 

 Varieties, Mixed 



While- not quite so large or fluted as "Ruffled 

 Giants," this lovely type is not less desirable. The 

 line flowers, wliich are of striking beauty are pro- 

 duced freely. They have daintily fringed petals. 

 This strain includes many fine and rich colors and 

 shades, and the large flowers with their fringed 

 petals make a wonderful showing. Pkt. 15c; 

 1/128 oz. 60c; 1/64 oz. SI. 00. 



1636 Extra Large Double Flowering 

 Mixed 



We make a specialty of this double flowering strain, 

 constantly improving it by selection and hybridiz- 

 ing. Our seed has been obtained by hand-pollina- 

 tion, and produces a high percentage of gorgeous 

 plain-edged or fringed double flowers, the small 

 balance being choice, large, single flowers of extra 

 fine quality. We suggest to carefully save apparent- 

 ly weak looking plants with crumpled foliage as 

 these usually produce the best double flowers. 

 Pkt. 35c; 1/128 oz. S2.00. 



1638 Ruffled Giants 



For size and beauty this giant ruffled type is unequalled. The flowers often mea- 

 sure 5 in. across. They are attractively ruffled or fringed and come in superb colors 

 and shades, ranging from pure white through pink, salmon, rose, crimson, carmine, 

 lavender, and blue, to deep purple. All have deep, wide, light or dark throats at- 

 tractively veined with contrasting colors. Pkt. 20c; 1/128 oz. 60c-; 1, 64 oz. Sl.OO. 



Balcony Petunias 



Balcony Petunias make a grand display in beds, 

 borders, and window or porch boxes. They develop 

 long branches with large, brilliantly colored flowers, 

 3 in. in diameter. When in full bloom the plants are 

 so heavily loaded with flowers as to completely hide 

 the foliage.

 of the Balcony type. The strong- growing plants

 large well-rounded flowers. The color is a velvety 

 violet relieved by a large five-pointed white star 

 which gives a glorious contrast to the flowers. Very 

 show^' and is one of the finest in this class. Pkt. 10c;
