PETUNIAS 



For outdoor decoration, porch or window boxes few 

 plants equal the Petunia in effectiveness. They commence 

 flowering early and continue a sheet of bloom throughout 

 the whole season until killed by frost; easily cultivated, 

 only requiring a good soil and sunny position. It is best to sow 

 them indoors and transplant to the open in May. The single 

 bedding kinds can be sown out of doors in May.
