Petunias For All ^™ 



Petunias, in the fine strains available to- 

 day, are one of our finest Summer flowers. 

 For bedding they are unsurpassed, and are 

 almost indispensable for porch and window 

 boxes. 



Petunias, even the Giant Flowered varie- 

 ties, are one of the easiest and most satis- 

 factory flowers to grow. Give them a good 

 start and they will bloom profusely from 

 early Summer until late Fall. 



CniiTUSE. The Giant varieties are best 

 started indoors in February or March, and 

 transplanted in May to the place where they 

 are to bloom, while the Bedding sorts will 

 give excellent results if sown in the open 

 in April or May. 



Petunia seeds are very fine and should be 

 sown in very shallow" drills. The best 

 method is to sow on top of the soil, press 

 down firmly with a smooth board, water, 

 and then cover with cheesecloth or paper 

 until the seedlings show. Keep well wat- 

 ered at all times, and transplant as soon as 

 large enough to handle.
