Produced under glass by that eminent florist-grower, Mr. Ernst 
Eriksson, of Riverside, Illinois (originator of Primula Malacoides 
Erikssoni), this improved strain of hand-pollinated large flowering 
dwarf Petunias is in our estimation the choicest and finest of this 
type available. It is excellent for pot plants, porch and window 
boxes, and for bedding. This strain is as profitable as it is beautiful.

along the line of our "Private Stock" Mixed color strain. Flowers 
are the same size, 3 to 4 inches in diameter. The same free-blooming 
habit makes this new variety particularly desirable as a pot or 
bedding Petunia. Don't overlook this valuable new kind for the 
coming spring. "Snowstorm" is unquestionably the "Queen" of all 
White Petunias.

PORTLAND PETUNIAS

Originator Strains 
Seed from Hand-Pollinated Plants 
Free flowering strong upright growths. Now very 
popular with the trade. Especially "Elk's Pride," 
which is the most outstanding of all purple varie¬ 
ties. 
All flowers are hand pollinated and the seed care¬ 
fully gathered by hand when ripe, not before, so 
that every seed has full germinative power. Colors 
run true almost without exception, but nature still 
seems to insist upon a small percentage of reverts 
to small flowers. Infinite care and time seem un¬ 
able to eliminate this natural trait in Petunias. 
Apple Blossom. Light pink. 
Elk's Pride, Improved. Royal purple (See page 33). 
Lilac Beauty. Soft lilac. 
Pride of Portland. Deep rose. 
Ruffled Heliotrope. Soft heliotrope. 
Scarlet Beauty. Bright scarlet.
