• 
Burpee’s Giant 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 admir¬ 
ably 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.
