PETUNIAS 



For outdoor decoration, porch or window boxes few plants 

 equal the Petunia in effectiveness. They commence flowering 

 early and continue a sheet of bloom throughout the whole 

 season until killed by frost; easily cultivated, only requiring a 

 good Ecil and sunny position. It is best to sow them indoors 

 and transplant to the open in May. The Single Bedding kinds 



r 



can be sown out of doors in May. We have long been 

 eel ;ry rated for our magnificent strains of both the large- 

 flowering single and double varieties, which we endeavor 

 to improve each year by careful selection and hybridi- ' 

 zation.
