Single Low-growing 
BEDDING PETUNIAS 
This is the most popular class of Petunias 
for outdoor bedding and are the leaders for 
plant sales in pots and flats. 
Petunias being one of our specialties, we 
make every possible effort to offer only the 
best strains of the most desirable colors, 
testing them carefully for growth and color. 
Harris Grown Petunias 
In order to assure you of better and more 
dependable Petunias we increased our seed- 
growing acreage to include the very important 
four leading colors of low-growing single 
Petunias. This makes it possible for you to 
sell plants with full confidence you will be 
making pleased customers.

bright pink. A more attractive shade and more com- 
pact growing than Rose of Heaven. A clear pink

uniformly low and compact. We sincerely believe this 
is far superior to any other Heavenly Blue on the
