Harris Grown BEDDING PETUNIAS 

Single Low-growing 
BEDDING PETUNIAS 
All Harris Grown 
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. 
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. 
W3826—CELESTIAL ROSE. The finest all-purpose 
bright pink. A more attractive shade and more com- 
pact growing than Rose of Heaven. A clear pink 
without the large white throat of Rosy Morn. This is 
the most compact and uniform growing strain. 
Lg. Pkt. 25c; 44 Oz. 55c; 14 Oz. 85c; Oz. $2.60. 
W3827—HEAVENLY Blue, Improved. This is the 
light blue so much in demand for plants but generally 
very variable in color. This year we are finally able to 
produce a much improved strain. In the field, the 
color was 100% true clear, light-blue and the plants 
uniformly low and compact. We sincerely aoe this 
is far superior to any other Heavenly Blue 
Lg. Pkt. 35c; 4% Oz. 80c; 14 Oz. $1 25: "Oz. $3.50. 
W3825—DARK PURPLE. A very much improved 
stock, more compact growing and a deep velvety dark 
blue- purple. As low growing as Celestial Rose. 
Lg. Pkt. 25c; 14 Oz. 45c; 14 Oz. 75c; Oz. $2.60. 
W3821—SNOWBALL. A new white, more uniform in 
growth and of the same compact habit as Celestial 
Rose. Most white Petunias offered are much taller.

W3823—ROSY MORN (Harris Grown). An unusually 
good strain of the ever-popular white-throated pink 
for bedding, boxes, etc. The flowers were larger and 
the plants remained uniformly low growing even dur- 
ing the extremely hot weather. 
Lg. Pkt. 25c; 4% Oz. 45c; 44 Oz. 75c; Oz. $2.60. 
W3829—ELEANOR BLUE (Harris Grown). It has 
taken us four years to get this desirable mid-blue 
back into production. The color is a pleasing shade of 
deep lilac, different from the other mid-blues, and 
more desirable. The plants are semi-dwarf, but un- 
usually uniform in height and color.

New White Petunia, Cream Star 
A New White Petunia 
More Uniformly Compact and 
More Free-Flowering 
W3844—CREAM STAR. We consider this the best white 
bedding Petunia ever introduced. The plants are 
uniformly compact and do not get ‘‘leggy.’’ All sum- 
mer they are a perfect mound of large creamy-white 
flowers. All of your customers will repeat on this one.

strain of our own growing. A dwarf ‘‘Flaming Velvet’”’ 
similar to ‘ ‘Velvet Ball.” The color is the darkest red

ly compact growing. We found it to be one of the best 
selling Petunias in the spring plant trade.
