 petals fluted and crinkled, intensifying and varying the colors with high lights

 margined, etc.; in short, these Double Petunias are unsurpassed by any other 

 etrain. (See illustration.) 

 3320 Mixed Colors Pkt. 50c 



NOTE: — This strain of Double-flowering Petunias does not produce seed. The 

 pollen from the doubles is transferred to the chosen singles which produce seed 

 so only about one-third of the flowers will be double and these in the seeding stage 

 are always the weaklings of the batch and are the ones to be transplanted. 



DOUBLE SELF-SEEDING 



This new strain produces seed; insuring a larger percentage of double- 

 flowering plants (about 60 per cent.) than can be raised from singles aitifically 

 pollenized from double flowers, which is necessary in prodxicing other Double 

 Petunias from seed. The flowers of these Double Self-seeding Petunias are 

 large — double — and include a variety of different colors.
