ST. LOUIS SEED COMPANY—"Pure and Sure” Seeds 


PETUNIAS 
Seed may be sown in late fall or spring. Soil 
should be well pulverized. Seed which is very fine 
should be sown on the surface and watered into 
the soil. The double and ruffled sorts will ger- 
minate better if started in flats or pans indoors, 
then transplanted to open when plants have 
their second leaves. Germination 7 to 20 days. 
Dwarf or Bedding Varieties

while branching freely from the base they never- 
theless remain quite compact.
