Richard Diener, Oxnard, Calif. 
Dear Mr. Diener: We have grown your Petunias for 
years in Kentucky and Ohio, but this last year, 1932, we 
grew them also in our garden near Ellsworth, Maine, 
which is pretty far north, near Bangor. The seeds you 
sent us last year produced far more beautiful and larger 
Petunias than we had ever seen growing outside. That this 
occurred in Maine was especially pleasing. Yours very truly, 
JOHN CALLAHAN.

Dear Sirs: The Petunias that I purchased of you last year 
all came up and grew into the most gorgeous Petunia plants 
and blooms that I ever saw—big, heavy plants about three 
feet high, with peony-shaped blooms, all different shades of 
color, which brought bushels of comment. The Amaryllis 
bulbs all came up nicely and are still growing, with two-inch 
by twenty-four-inch long, bright, green leaves. I am highly 
anxious to see them in bloom. Very truly yours, 
GEO. W. MITCHELL.
