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 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 large-flowering single and double varieties, which we en- 

 deavor to improve each year by careful selection and hybridization.
