New "All Double" Petunia 
"ORCHID BEAUTY" IMPROVED 
A NEW "ALL DOUBLE" PETUNIA OF HIGH VALUE. EXCEPTIONAL FOR POT PLANTS AND BEDDING 
Given an, Award of Merit By 
The All-Double Petunia "World Beauty," illustrated on next page, has 
proved so highly popular with the trade and public as well that the 
introducers of this valuable kind have striven for several years past to 
produce an orchid-colored variety of the same type and of equal value. 
We are glad to say that this has now been accomplished, and while 
there is, as is the fact with most Petunias, some slight variation in 
Highest All-America 
"SALMON 
A color long wanted in Petunias. The flowers, when first opening, are 
of a rich coral-salmon, changing as they mature to a glistening soft 
salmon-pink. They grow 2 inches across and are deeply five-lobed. We 
have placed it in the hybrida nana compacta group, although the plants 
Hybrida "Elf" 
This new shade in Petunias is a valuable 
addition for balcony and window-box decora¬ 
tions. The plants, about 18-20 inches high, 
are bushy. The thin but strong stems pro¬ 
duce masses of medium sized flesh pink 
blooms. This delicate colored Petunia will be 
generally welcome for use in groups and beds.

shading of same, the effect of "ORCHID BEAUTY" IMPROVED is 100 
per cent outstanding. We predict that this new introduction will obtain 
as keen a vogue as has "World Beauty" and the All-Double Mixture. 
Since the supply of "Orchid Beauty" seed is comparatively small this 
year, we suggest early ordering.

are perhaps somewhat more spreading. They have a uniform height of 
about 1 foot and a spread of about 1 Vi feet. Profuse branching, un¬ 
usually floriferous. Tr. Pkt.75c 
Hybrida Grandiflora Fimbriata 
("Golden Jubilee") 
German (Grower's) Description 
A sport from my "Miranda" variety. Both 
have the finely fringed and delicately crinkled 
petals of bright carmine tinged with scarlet. 
Golden Jubilee, however, has a golden throat 
with light bronze colored markings. This 
golden yellow center gives the flower a gay 
and festive character, comparable to the 
golden trimming on a state robe. Every plant 
produces numerous blooms measuring about 
3Vi inches in diameter. Tr. Pkt.$1.00 
Topaz Rose" 
(Special Mention by All-America Council) 
Hybrida type, 2 inch flowers of clean, light 
cerise red or topaz rose, running true and 
with strong Petunia scent. A good grower, 15 
to 18 inches tall and fairly upright. Continu¬ 
ous bloomer and holds color quite well in hot 
sun. Tr. Pkt.50c
