Giants of California 
A&M PETUNIAS 
The seed of all our Giant Ruffled, Double and Fringed 
varieties is produced by por culture in a lath house where 
each plant is given personal attention and each flower is 
hand-pollenized. 
The culture of Petunias is simple. Seeds may be planted from 
September to March in cold frames or boxes. Equal parts of loam 
soil and fine river sand provides a good seed bed. The very best 
strains of Petunias will produce a small percentage of inferior 
flowers, and the smaller plants often produce the best flowers; 
therefore plants should be taken as they come. See inside front 
cover for more detailed planting instructions.
