MICHELL’S PETUNIAS 
34A 
For freedom of bloom, variety of color and effectiveness the Petunia has few equals, either for the flower garden, porches or 
window boxes; they commence blooming early and continue until killed by frost. We call special attention to our Large Flowering 
strains, which for size and brilliancy of coloring cannot be surpassed.
