MICHELL’S NEW 
White Cloud. 
lichell’s GIANT PETUNIAS 

Petunia, Igloo 
IGLOO. Bronze Medal, 1943 All-America 
Selections. This new extra compact white 
Petunia produces flowers of medium size, 
pure white, with a slight yellow throat, 
and coming 100% true. The plants are 
uniformly compact throughout the sea- 
son, and continue to flower until frost. 
The plant is a perfect mound of white, 
8 to 10 inches in height, reminding one 
of an Eskimo igloo. This variety is ideal 
for borders, also splendid for pots. 
Trade pkt., 75c; 1/32 oz., $1.50; 1/16 
oz., $2.75; Vg oz., $5.00. 
ENGLISH VIOLET. Honorable Mention, 
1943 All-America Selections. A new and 
most pleasing shade of violet-blue Pe- 
tunia, different from any other of the 
mid-blue varieties. It is almost the 
same beautiful color as English Violets.. 
Very important, it will hold this uniform 
color throughout the season. The plants 
grow normally 15 inches high, quite com- 
pact, and we believe the best mid-blue 
dwarf bedding Petunia yet introduced. 
Trade pkt., 50c; 1/32 oz., 90c; 1/16 oz.,
