MORSE'S GIANT PETUNIAS 
Petunias grow with little attention or care and in any soil, and bloom profusely all spring and summer. The large double varieties 
do not produce seed, but the pollen from them is artificially crossed on the large, single and fringed plants, and the seed so produced will 
make a percentage of double blossoms. The Giant Flowered types are in large, single, plain edged or fringed edged blossoms or in very 
thickly double flowers. As Petunia seed is exceedingly fine, merely press it into the soil after sowing, cover with chopped moss or sift 
a little sand over to cover, and, if possible, allow the water to soak up from beneath. The weakest-looking plants will develop into the 
handsomest flowers, so save all plants carefully. 
Petunia Seed is very fine and very expensive; there is therefore but a very little seed, almost like dust, in each packet.
