PETUNIAS for All Purposes 
A very useful and free-flowering annual, thriving on any soil and in the hottest weather. For a showy bed, or for porch or 
window boxes, few plants equal the Petunia in effectiveness. Sow the seed in pots or flats in the house or hotbed in February 
or March, or in the garden as soon as the soil is warm. Cover the seed but slightly as it is very fine. 
Large Single Flowering Varieties 
663 SINGLE FRINGED DAINTY LADY. Not for many years 
has an entirely new color in Petunias been introduced to 
the gardening public. Various new shades of rose, pink, 
blue and crimson may be expected from season to season, but 
we now present for your critical approval a distinct new hue 
in the Petunia color cycle—delicate golden yellow. The 
Dainty Lady, the remarkable Petunia introduction is, to the 
best of our knowledge, the first really yellow Petunia. It has 
been in the process of development for the past ten years, 
gradually but surely deepening the color, until this season it 
is ready for presentation. The plants are neat, compact, semi- 
dwarf and free flowering, bearing generous quantities of the 
medium sized, delicately fringed light golden yellow flowers 
throughout the summer. You and your friends will be thrilled 
with this brand new Petunia color. Plant it in a border with 
Verbena Lavender Glory, or Ageratum Blue Ball, for good 
contrast of color. Pkt., 35c. 
664 SETTING SUN. The result of a cross between Petunia 
grandiflora flmbriata, Brilliant Rose, and a dwarf variety. It 
comes true from seed and forms compact bushes 12 inches 
high, covered with beautifully fringed blossoms of a bril¬ 
liant rose-pink, measuring 3 inches across. It is admirably 
suited both for growing in pots and for borders. Pkt., 35c. 
665 GOTTFRIED MICHAELIS. A worthy companion to the 
Dwarf fringed Petunia, “Setting Sun,” introduced last year. 
The compact bushes of about 12 inches in height are cov¬ 
ered with daintily fringed and waved medium-sized flowers 
about 3 inches in diameter, of a brilliant amaranth-red, 
deepening somewhat toward the center. This Petunia will be 
found of the greatest value for bedding purposes, as also for 
pots and window boxes. Pkt., 35c. 
666 ELK’S PRIDE. Immense flowers of rich deep Elk’s purple, 
with large lobes forming a five-pointed star. The velvety 
black veins add much beauty. Pkt., 25c. 
667 DIENER’S PINK GLORY. Large, well-formed flowers of a 
most exquisite luminous pink, shaded with a contrasting 
white throat, and marked with creamy white veins. Pkt., 35c. 
668 THEODOSIA. Large, fringed, rosy pink flowers with a 
clearly defined golden center. Pkt., 35c.

Pkt., 25c. 
670 DWARF WHITE GLORY, This is the nearest to the 
variety White Cloud but is much whiter, dwarfer and more 
compact. The flowers are the purest white and the uni¬ 
formity of the dwarf compact growth is marvelous. This 
variety is one of the best large-flowering single white 
Petunias. Pkt., 40c. 
Large Single Flowering Mixtures

giant mixture of Fringed Petunias producing flowers 100% 
double. Habit very compact. The plants are remarkably 
uniform in habit producing a wonderful assortment of bril¬ 
liant and fancy colorings. Very free flowering; an excep¬ 
tionally fine strain for pot culture as well as for bedding.

ers. Plants about 8 inches wide. 
675 MARTHA WASHINGTON. A new break in Petunias. 
Martha Washington is a ruffled or frilled Petunia. Its 
growth is about 9 inches high, and it forms a perfect ball 
effeet, literally smothered with lovely frilled blooms about 
3 inches in diameter. Its neat, compact habit makes it suit¬ 
able for borders, bedding, pots or window boxes. This is a 
unique novelty in Petunia. Pkt., 20c; 3 pkts., 50c.
