_ PETUNIAS 
For cutdoor decoration, porch or window boxes few plants equal the 
Petunia in effectiveness. They commence flowering early and con- 
tinue a sheet of bloom throughout the whole season until killed by 
frost; easily cultivated, only requiring a good soil and sunny position. 
It is best to sow them indoors and transplant to the open in May. The - 
Single Bedding kinds can be sown out of doors in May. We have 
long been celebrated for our magnificent strains of both .the single and 
double varieties, which we endeavor. to improve each year by careful 
selection and hybridization. 
Note.—/t is well known that seed saved from the most car'e- 
fully hybridized flowers produce but a small percentage of double 
flowers, the balance being single of unusually fine quality. The 
weaker seedlings 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.
