PETUNIAS (a) 
Petunias are truly the glory of the flower garden. 
They will thrive in almost any soil and through almost 
all kinds of weather. All through the intense heat of 
last summer, our Petunia beds were one blaze of bloom. 
From the time they first bloom up to killing frost they 
seem to bloom heavier and heavier as the days pass, 
throughout the entire summer. Every year we plant 
thousands of the different Petunias about our office 
grounds and it is truly a glorious sight to see.
