Salzer’s Mixed Balcony Petunias 
PETUNIA ha 
Few flowers excel Petunias in brilliant and gorgeous display, 
especially for porch or window boxes. They commence flowering 
very early, and continue their riotous production of bloom through¬ 
out the whole season, until killed by frost. Easily cultivated, re¬ 
quiring only a good soil and a sunny position. It is best to sow 
them indoors and transplant to the open in May, although the seed 
may be sown directly out of doors in May. 1 to 1% feet. 
CLIFFWOOD BALCONY SORTS , 
This type has become very popular within the last few years. 
They are unusually free-blooming, trailing in growth, with im¬ 
mense single flowers averaging three inches in diameter, and are 
particularly suited for hanging baskets, window boxes and beds.

DOUBLE PETUNIAS 
The seed of the double-flowering Petunias is obtained by hand- 
hybridizing; 50 to 70 per cent will be the big double, fluffy flowers. 
In growing them from seed, the weaker seedlings should receive 
the most attention as they produce the finest double flowers.
