Hybrida Petunias are not so lar^e (lowered as some oF the other 



varieties, but their profusion of bloom sives a wonderful effect.

Balcony or Trailing [15 in.] To droop over the edge of a 

 window box or to overhang a terrace, these are the best 

 Petunias to select. They differ from the bushy varieties 

 by producing longer, more spreading plants. In their 

 several colors the single flowers are very gay, either alone 

 or in combination. Larger flowered than the Hybrida type.

Enduring 



What flowers succeed under more unfavorable 

 conditions than Petunias? And what flowers lend 

 themselves to more uses? ^Yhen massed in beds 

 they truly form "a sea of color." As low border 

 plants they are kaleidoscopic in their shades and 

 tints: In window boxes or overhanging a terrace 

 wall they are brilliant trailers. They make good 

 house plants too, the fringed and double flowering 

 varieties supplying magnificent blossoms. These 

 low-spreading plants with their trumpet flowers 

 love the sunshine, they often bloom within two 

 months after seed is sown, and when frost comes 

 they will still be making a brave display. [hA] 



Hybrida [2 ft.] Bushy plants of great value for 

 massing in beds or grouping in the border to 

 replace early spring flowers. While the single 

 flowers are not particularly large, their great
