Petunias 



New Dwarf Fringed 

 Large- Flowering 



This new dwarf race of large-flow- 

 ering fringed Petunia is a valu- 

 able introduction. The plants, 

 though branching freely from the 

 base, rarely exceed 8 inches in 

 height and form dvvarf compact 

 little bushes which carry, well 

 above the foliage, numerous 

 large fringed-edge flowers of 

 all the beautiful Petunia col- 

 ors, including those blotched, 

 throated and veined in varied 

 combinations. For flower 

 beds or growing in pots these 

 new compact-growing, large- 

 flowering Petunias are un- 

 surpassed and fill a long-felt 

 want. 

 Mixed Colors Pkt. 25c.

 by crumpled velvet, which the flow- 

 ers resemble. There is a variety of 

 colors — selfs. blotched, veined, mar- 

 gined, etc.; in short, these Double Petu- 

 nias are unsurpassed by any other strain in 

 the world

NOTE. — Double-flowering Petunia plants do not produce seed. The 

 pollen jrom the doubles is transferred to the chosen singles which produce 

 the seed: in consequence only about one-third of the progeny will be double- 

 flowering plants, and these in the seedling stage are always the weaklings 

 of the batch and are the ones to be coddled. Even the best double-flowering 

 plants of these may only bear a single or setni-double flower at first. 



DOUBLE SELF-SEEDING PETUNIAS 



This new strain is unique from the fact that the double flowers pro- 

 duce seed insuring a larger percentage of double-flowering plants (about 

 60 per cent.) than can be raised from singles artificially pollenized from 

 double flowers which is necessary in producing all other Double Petunias 

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

 double — and include a variety of different colors Pkt. 25c.
