PETUNIAS 



( 



For outdoor decoration, porch or window boxes few plants 

 equal the Petunia in effectiveness. They commence flowering 

 earij' 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 endeavor 

 to improve each year by careful selection and hybridi- 

 zation.
