We know this is true, because every spring, we too, grow large 
quantities of flower plants for retail sales, and realize you cannot 
build customers unless your plants are better than your com¬ 
petitor's. To do this you must start with the right seed. 
It is impossible for your customers to be any more critical than ours—we 
must have exceptional quality. To do this, our Flower Seed Department is 
continually working to develop better types for this particular trade. 
We know our Paramount Ruffled Giant Petunias are what you want. Not 
only are the flowers immense and bright colored, but the plants are low grow¬ 
ing, even throughout the hot weather. This is an advantage to both your 
customers and to you, especially when selling in pots. 
Our Giant Purple Prince Petunia is increasing in popularity with growers 
and their customers as fast as we can produce the seed, because, like our 
“Paramount Ruffled Giants,” every flower must be hand-pollenated. This is 
slow, tedious work. 
We grew a new giant white Petunia this year called Giant Snowstorm. The 
flowers are immense, well waved, and the plants remain very low all summer. 
Our own Black Prince (or Improved, Dwarf Flaming Velvet) sells well in the 
plant trade. It has the advantage of showing flowers while the plants are 
still in boxes. 
Although we have been specializing in Petunias, they are by no means the 
only flower seeds we grow. There is our Northern-Grown Bonfire Salvia, 
larger flowered and better germinating; Early Dawn Asters, the earliest for 
cutting; Delphinium, flowers and vigor are exceptional; Foxglove, our new 
pastel cotors; Lupins, unusual colors growing well in most any location; Hardy 
Carnations, excellent for Memorial Day plant trade; Pyrethrum, Scabiosa; and 
so on down through a long list. 
Most important, however, is the immense amount of work being done “be¬ 
hind the scenes” by our Flower Seed Department under the supervision of 
Schuyler Arnold. 
All of our flowers are carefully tried out here on Moreton Farm to make 
sure each variety is unsurpassed for its use in this climate. Besides they are 
regularly inspected in the field during their growing season. 
A suggestion—Mr. Arnold is always glad to answer your questions. Why 
not write him?
