“With enclosed order I am sending a snapshot of a bed of Henderson’s Giant Petunias. 
NY of them came double, and some measured 534 inches across. 
“The picture shows the flowers after I, transplanted them into potstouse as house plants 
during the winter months. I live 25 miles west of the Yellowstone National Park at an 
elevation of 7,500 feet.”

HENDERSON’S SELECTED 
Petunias 
Years of scientific culture and hybridization of Petunias 
have gradually evolved superior races of large flowered, robust- 
Rowing varieties greatly surpassing those of former days. 
The varieties described on this page are all standards in their 
respective classes; in fact, the best of their kind. 
Petunia, Compact Bedding 
Dense, bushy little plants, only about 8 inches high; the 
Hower while not large, in their profusion fairly hide the 
plants. 
3302 Inimitable. Cherry-red with a white throat. Pkt. 10c. 
3304 Norma. Velvety-blue, with white center... . Pkt. 10c. 
3306 Pink Mound. Rosy-pink, with white throat. Pkt. 10c. 
3308 Snowball. White flowers.................. Pkt. 10c. 
3310 Compacta, Mixed Colors................ 
Per 1,000 seeds, 40c.; Pkt. 10c. 
Petunia, Henderson’s Giant 
Double 
“GIANTS OF CALIFORNIA” 
These are as large as Hollyhocks, and very double. The 
edges are fringed, petals fluted and crinkled, intensifying and 
varying the colors with high lights and dark shadows, bringing 
out a richness and effect unmatched by crumpled velvet, 
which the flowers resemble. They come in a variety of colors 
—selfs, blotched, veined, margined, etc.; in short, these 
Double Petunias are unsurpassed by any other strain. 
3320 Mixed Colors..............6.0..00. esc aes Pkt. 30c. 
NOTE.—This strain of Dati le eleeaen Petunias do not 
produce seed. The pollen from 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 seeding stage are always the weaklings of the 
batch and are the ones to be coddled. ; 
“‘We have gotten the best double Petunias from your seed 
we ever had; much better than we could obtain elsewhere.” 
HOPKINS & HOPKINS, 
Prospect Hill Gardens, Chepachet, R. I. 
Petunia, Double Self-Seeding 
3330 This new strain is unique from the fact that the double 
owers produce 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. 50c. 
Petunia, Henderson’s Giant

edges, and all are of enormous dimensions, 4 to 5 inches
