PETUNIA 
Few annual plants equal in effectiveness the

bloom until frost.

ANNUAL PHLOX 
Phlox Drummondi grandiflora 
This is one of the most brilliant and at the

factory plants readily grown from seed. It 
will grow and thrive in any kind of soil if 
given a sunny location, but prefers a light, 
rich loam. Seed may be sown in the open 
ground any time after danger from frost is 
past, and in a few weeks they are a sheet of 
bloom, remaining so until frost. Grows 15 
inches tall.

Double Fringed Petunias

est flowers.
