Petunia Ball Dwarf Giant No. 1. The finest Giant 
for pot plant use. 
“BALL DWARF GIANT No. 1 
We consider this the finest uniformly dwarf strain available. 
Produces around 80% extra large, open throated flowers 
ranging in color from velvety crimson to delicate pink; and 
is at its very best in a 3 or 4 inch pot. Due to an unfortunate 
mixup which was directly traceable to the war-riddled help 
situation, our California grower last year supplied us with 
a considerable quantity of our No. 2 strain under our No. 1 
label. We greatly regret that some of our grower friends re- 
ceived this seed and offer the assurance that every possible 
effort is being made to avoid these mistakes. 14 Tr. pkt., 75e3 
ae $1.25; Wa oz., $2.50; Vo oz, $4.50; Ye oz., 
.00.

PET U Nagas 
The Universal Favorite 
(200,000 seeds per ounce) 
Because of their general excellence under nearly all growing con- 
ditions, the demand for Petunias, both for bedding and as pot 
plants, is steadily increasing. Some varieties, particularly in the 
Giant and Grandiflora classes, may be in short supply this year 
due to a lack of the hand labor involved in producing them. Vari- 
eties of lesser importance have been temporarily dropped to insure 
better supplies of the more important kinds. 
Your customers will want more Petunias than ever next Spring. 
Why not offer them quality plants grown in Ball Better Plant 
Bands? 
The California Giants 
When properly grown—near the glass and cool, the 
Dwarf Giants are exceptionally attractive as 3 and 4 inch 
pot plants. For this purpose our Ball Dwarf Giant No. 1 
is in a class by itself. As this is written the prospect for 
a fairly large supply of this strain is good. 
* Ball Dwarf Giant No. 2. Ramona Strain. More vigor- 
ous in growth than our No. 1 strain, therefore better 
suited for outdoor bedding work. Produces about 65% 
large California Giant flowers in a wide range of choice

Fringed California Doubles 
These are superior strains and while they should not be confused 
with the formerly imported All-Doubles, they will, with proper 
care and good growing conditions, give a good percentage of 
large fully double flowers. Choice specimens may be propagated 
by cuttings, and remember that the weakest seedlings will usually 
produce the best doubles.
