BURPEE'S 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 the shade nor in soil that is overly rich We offer an extra select assortment. 
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
