RICHARD DIENER, OXNARD, CALIFORNIA, L. S. A. 
PETUNIA SEEDS 
All of our Petunias for seed raising - are grown first in three-inch pots and must conform 
to type just as you see the photographs of the plants in three-inch pots in the catalogue. 
The leaves must not be larger than to just reach over the outside of the pots, a feat which 
took years to accomplish because while I was increasing the size of the flower, the leaves 
were also increasing, so I had to reduce the leaves without reducing the size of the flowers. 
Then the petals must stand out straight without curling back, as they used to, as well as 
many other little details which only an expert sees. This has taken time and patience and 
considerable money on my part to accomplish, which fact is mostly overlooked by people. 
Remember that what you get from here is the best you can get anywhere in the world. 
The name “Diener’s” as a trade-mark is registered with the U. S. Patent Office. If you 
buy Petunia seeds from other dealers which are labeled Diener’s seeds, and the package 
is not sealed with my registered trade-mark (Diener’s Original Petunia Seeds), they are 
not my seeds but a substitute.
