Seeds of Beautiful ANNUAL 
FLOWERS 
HAINES BEAUTIFUL PETUNIAS 
New Petunia—Martha Washington 
This is a ruffled and frilled variety of dwarf growth—about nine 
inches high—forming a perfect ball effect. The blooms are about 
three inches in diameter and literally smother the plant. The 
frilled portion of the flower is a beautiful blush pink and the cen¬ 
ter portion is strongly veined a rich wine red deepening in the 
throat, which is large, to dark violet. The veining is so unique 
that the blooms resemble a pelargonium. Pkt. 20c; 3 Pkts. for 50c. 
Three New Petunias 
One packet each of the three for only, 54c, postpaid 
BLUE BEE. An outstanding variety and a wonderful variety to 
use in any location where Petunias are grown. Flowers are of 
medium size and of a rich dark blue color. There are so few 
worth while blue flowers that my new Blue Bee will be a wel¬ 
come addition especially in the so popular “Blue Gardens.” 
Pkt. 10c; 3 Pkts. for 25c. 
DOUBLE ROSY MORN. Just what you have been waiting for— 
the true Rosy Morn color in a double flower. Flowers are of 
medium size semi-double with heavy petals folding back from 
the center. Almost resembles a Gardenia in shape, while the 
color is of course that unmatchable shade of rose-pink. Pkt. 
20c; 3 Pkts. for 50c. 
THEODOSIA. So many have asked for this popular variety that 
I am now listing with my other “Better varieties.” Large 
flowers of rosy-pink with clearly defined golden center with mi¬ 
nute stripes. Flowers are heavily frilled or ruffled. Pkt. 15c- 
3 Pkts, 40c. 
Petunia Theodosia 
Rose of Heaven 
Rich Brilliant Rose Color with an 
Inconspicuous White Throat 
A clear rosy pink flower of good size and very 
beautiful. The throat is nearly the same color as 
the petals, very few having the white throats so 
common in most pink Petunias. While not as large 
a flower as my wonderful Balcony Queen Petunias 
shown on page 19, they are much larger than the 
Rosy Morn, which we have all known and grown for 
many years. A bed of Rose of Heaven Petunias is 
unusually attractive, and as they remain in bloom all 
summer, gives a delightful touch of color to a yard 
that might otherwise be dull and dreary. Pkt. 10c; 
Ys oz. 48c; i/ 2 oz. $1.40. 
Haines Mammoth Flowered 
Invincible 
The Largest and Most Beautiful Petunia Ever Grown 
An entirely new class—distinct from any others 
in the exquisite colorings, and in the general appear¬ 
ance of the flowers. These must be seen to be ap¬ 
preciated as all are fringed and fluted in every con¬ 
ceivable manner. This is without question the larg¬ 
est, prettiest and most wonderful Petunia ever 
grown. Equally desirable in pots in the house or 
grown in beds out of doors. Seed is very fine and 
care must be used not to plant the seed too deep. 
The colors are startlingly brilliant—some solid col¬ 
ors, but mostly a combination of colors never seen 
before in one flower. All of my seed is hand picked, 
and selected from the largest and heaviest frilled 
flowers showing the finest colorings. Pkt. 15c; 
4 Pkts. 50c. 
World Beauty Petunia 
New Double Pink Fringed 
It produces large double fringed flowers of the 
most beautiful rosy carmine color, plants of dwarf 
compact growth which makes this grand new 
sort particularly desirable for pot plants as well 
as bedding. Petunia growers will, we believe, do 
well to culture “World Beauty” in a large way. 
Packet 25c. 
Star of 
California 
Velvety Purple Shaded 
Crimson, with a Star- 
Shaped White Blotch 
This is an outstanding 
variety of the Balcony 
type, but with the size 
and beauty of the Califor¬ 
nia Giants. For window 
boxes, hanging baskets, 
and vases, this is what 
you have been waiting for. 
The stems are almost 
completely covered with 
rich purplish flowers, 
which are glorified with a 
sheen of crimson ; but the 
crowning feature is the 
pure white star in the 
form of a blotch in the 
throat of each blossom. 
The branches are extra 
long, and hang over the 
edge of the box or vase, 
presenting a beautiful ap¬ 
pearance. Pkt. 12c. 
Fluffy Ruffles 
Beautiful Colors—Heavily Frilled and 
Ruffled—Large Size—Easy to Grow— 
Sure to Bloom 
The originators of this wonderful strain 
of Petunias claim that the flowers will aver¬ 
age 4 to 6 inches in diameter, but I am 
content in claiming a size of about 3 inches. 
However, the flowers are so heavily frilled 
that a blossom 3 inches in diameter is often 
20 inches or more in circumference. 
Fluffy Ruffles commences to bloom very 
early, and continues in flower all through 
the summer until frosts kill the plant to the 
ground. Easily cultivated. All you need 
is a good soil and sunny location. Pkt. 15c. 
Giants of California 
A California Variety of Great Beauty, Size 
and Luxuriance 
The flowers are of immense size, often 
measuring 5 to 6 inches across. The vari¬ 
ety of colors, markings, veinings and 
blotchings distinguish them from all others. 
They are usually ruffled and fringed on the 
edges, and present a great variety of beauti¬ 
ful colors. With the exception of Haines 
Invincible Petunia, this is tbe finest Petunia 
ever grown. Equally desirable in the house 
or grown in beds out of doors. Seed is very 
fine and care must be used not to plant the 
seed too deep. Pkt. 15c; 2 Pkts. for 25c. 
New Golden Rose 
Brilliant Orange Rose Color, with a Lighter 
Shade of Yellow in the Throat 
This unusual color surely deserves a place 
with the finest novelties, 
as it is entirely different 
from any I have ever 
grown or seen. The orange 
rose color is the same 
throughout the flower, ex¬ 
cept that the throat is a 
lighter shade of yellow. In 
size, it is about the same 
as the other out of doors 
bedding varieties, with 
which we are all familiar. 
Its color is its greatest 
charm, and I can con¬ 
fidently recommend it to 
all. Pkt. 10c; Vs oz. 60c.
