Petunias—Continued 
Giants of California 
Supreme Florist Strain 
For some years there has been a demand for this type of Petunia in 
a color range comprising the lighter rose and pink shades, and we 
feel that it will be a welcome addition to the large Florist type. It is 
of the well known Giants of California type, with very large ruffled, 
shallow, open throated flowers, freely produced on strong growing 
plants which may be as much as two feet tall by the end of the sea¬ 
son. It is an excellent bedding variety as well as a fine window 
box type.

Dwarf Giants of California 
Ramona Strain. A dwarf sturdy growing type especially suited for 
pots. Flowers are beautifully ruffled and fringed with well 
marked throats. 
jfa oz., $1.75; 3*2 oz., $2.75; iV oz., $5.00; Trade pkt.$1.00 
Super Fluffy Ruffles 
The flowers are so ruffled and frilled that they have the appearance 
of being double, and are far superior to the original strain originated 
by Mrs. Shepherd. The flowers are very large with large throats. 
It is a well balanced mixture of Pink and White, Salmon, Deep Rose, 
Crimson and Light Blue. An outstanding improvement of an old 
variety.
