Petunias

 most satisfactory summer-blooming annuals in

 surpass them. In window- or porch-boxes, in beds, 

 borders, or hanging boxes, they are a solid mass of 

 brilliant color all summer long. For early flowering 

 in northern states it is advisable to plant indoors 

 and transplant to the open when the weather is 

 warm.
