NEW DWARF RUFFLED PETUNIA 
Garden Giants 
The outstanding feature of this new variety is its satisfactory plant 
growth. The plants uniformly develop into well-rounded mounds 12 to 
15 inches high. They start flowering when extremely small and con- 
tinue their gorgeous display all through the summer, holding their size 
and ruffling even under the adverse conditions of heat and dryness. 
Because of its uniformity and continuous blooming, it is by far the best 
variety of Giant Ruffled Petunias for borders we have ever seen. 
The mixture includes a wide variety of bright color combinations.
