PETUNIA CULTURE. This is covered more 
fully on page 16 of ‘‘The Gardener’s Handbook” 
sent free with your order. We treat all seeds 
of Petunias with Semesan to help prevent ‘‘damp- 
ing off’? which together with covering too deeply 
causes more failures than anything else. The 
seed may be sown indoors about 8 weeks before 
your usual outdoor planting time to give you 
blooming plants in early June, and because the 
seed are small should be sown in boxes and 
transplanted even when late planting is prac- 
ticed. Petunias like a well drained, good garden 
soil, and full sun. They should not be planted 
in shade or where soil is extremely rich.

NEW DWARF RUFFLED 
PETUNIA 
1598—“GARDEN GIANTS” 
The outstanding feature of this new variety 
is its satisfactory plant growth. The plants 
uniformly develop into well-rounded mounds 
12-15” high. They start flowering when exe 
tremely small, and continue their gorgeous 
display all through the summer, holding their 
size and ruffling even under adverse con- 
ditions of heat and dryness. Because of its 
uniformity and continuous blooming, it is by 
far the best variety of Giant Ruffled Petun- 
ias for borders we have ever seen. Includes a 
wide variety of bright color combinations.
