Petunias 
THE BEST FLOWER FOR GENERAL PLANTING IN FLORIDA 
Plant from September to June. Approx, time seed sowing to bloom—10-12 weeks 
The petunia should be Florida’s State Flower because it is Florida’s outstanding 
flower. Each year there are more and more acres of blooming petunias scattered 
across the Flowery State of Florida. Soon Florida’s petunias will outrival the pop¬ 
pies of California which gild her roadsides and vacant lands. They are outstanding 
favorites and used extensively for bedding, bordering, and roadside beautification. 
Neither extreme heat nor cold affects them, and they can be planted at almost any 
time. The very small seeds should be sown in boxes and transplanted, when the 
seedlings are well grown, to the bed or border, 6 inches apart. 
Petunias are in no wise particular as to soil, but do best on moderately rich, well- 
drained, though moist soil. Since they grow and bloom over long periods, they 
require lasting fertilizers for best results. For use on petunia beds when they are 
made up, there is no better fertilizer than our bonemeal. 
When transplanting, make the soil rich but do not use chicken manure, sheep 
manure or fish meal, because these act as poisons to Petunias. Do not set plants 
too deep because in that case they take much longer to start growth and often 
damp off.

perfection. The huge blossoms are wonderfully ruffled and range bewilderingly

mediate hues, markings, and curious blotches. The single flowers measure 3 to 4 % 
inches across and are gorgeously ruffled. MIXTURE: Pkt. 10c; 3 pkts. 25c.
