Hummert’s Highest Quality Flower SEEDS for Florists 
11 
SELECTED PETUNIAS 
Good Petunias are becoming more in demand each 
year, the medium and dwarf varieties for bedding, and 
the Fringed and Double as a pot plant for Mothers 
Day Sales. 
To grow good petunias you must have rich soil. 
Before sowing the seed we recommend treating the soil 
with hot water to kill all fungi and weed seed in the soil. 
Our Petunia seeds are of the finest quality, grown 
by the best growers in Europe and California, from 
selected plants, and are hand pollenized, no matter how 
careful the selection, you sometimes will find a few 
plants which revert to the old type; these usually bloom 
first. This is a natural habit of petunias.
