Big Fringed Petunias 
(Petunia hybrida grandifiora fimbriata) 
Burpee’s Big Fringed Petunias, which average 4 to 6 inches 
across when properly grown, have a .charm of their own due 
to their attractively fringed or frilled blooms. The varieties 
offered are the finest for size, color, and form of the flowers. 
They are admirably suited for bedding purposes, pot culture 
and for cutting. The seeds should be sown indoors six to 
eight weeks before your usual outdoor planting time.
