low and Exelter Flowers 
2439 Petunia, Cheerful a 
Bronze Medal Winner, All-America Selections for 1944 
A brand new color and growing habit distinguishes 
the new single petunia “‘Cheerful.’’ The clear 
salmon-pink flowers, 234 in. and more across, have 
a deeper rose veining toward the throat and here 
and there among the mass of blooms are ones a 
tint or two lighter than others. They combine to 
give a “Cheerful” sparkle and sprightliness. At 
first the growth is low, spreading close to the 
ground; later the plants forma dwarf mound 10in, 
high with a spread of 2 ft. Growth is densely com- 
pact with no tendency whatever to thin out, fall 
over, or to spread open in the center. Unsurpassed 
in garden beds and borders. It cuts well, too.
