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.
