Beautiful Bedding Petunias 



For outdoor decoration, porch, or window boxes, or any 

 position w r here a mass of color is wanted, we do not know 

 of any plant that equals the Bedding Petunias for effec- 

 tiveness, and that will give such a wealth of charming 

 color over so long a season. They begin flowering early 

 and continue a sheet of bloom without interruption 

 until killed by frost. The six Bedding sorts offered below 

 were selected for their compact growth and distinct coloring. 

 To secure the longest season of bloom, the seed should be 

 started indoors or in a hot-bed in March or April, or may be 

 sown directly where they are wanted to bloom as soon as 

 the weather has become settled and warm. For best results 

 the plants should be set about a foot apart, and preferably 

 given a sunny position. The large-flowering Single and 

 Double Fringed, and Ruffled sorts will be found offered on 

 page 101. per per

 Purple Prince

 shy seeder. 35 cts. per pkt. 3 pkts., $1.00.
