BURPEE’S EXQUISITE PETUNIAS 
Petunias are among the most satisfactory annuals for garden 
display. They succeed in ordinary, well-drained garden 
loam such as will grow a good crop of vegetables, and in a 
location where they receive plenty of sunlight. Do not 
plant in soil that is overly rich. 
Some types are especially suited for bedding and pot culture, 
others are ideal for edgings and mass plantings, while others 
are unexcelled for porch and window boxes; all are excellent 
for cutting. The freedom with which the charming blooms 
are produced throughout the growing season is truly amazing.
