New All-Double Dwarf Victorious Petunia 
Novelties 
We are glad to be able once again to offer to our customers the following list 
of the popular All-Double Petunias. This stock comes direct from the originator 
in Japan. Delivery, crops permitting, will be about October, 1949. 
WWumination. Developed from Rosy Carmine Improved, being much brighter 
in color and more uniform in shading. We may term the color as bright red 
with scarlet sheen. We think this is the brightest color of all Victorious 
Petunias. Very large flower of well-fringed form, which is exceptionally beau- 
tiful. The habit is dwarf and compact. 
Mayflower. Conspicuously veined with bright carmine-red on white ground; 
some show lighter veins. Very unique but beautiful coloring. 
Orange (Salmon). This is the nearest to orange of any Petunia. Salmon- 
orange may bea more suitable description. Flowers are large and well fringed. 
An important addition to this group. 
Purple Glow. New. Deep glowing purple with velvety blue shade. The best 
true purple in the Victorious group. Individual flowers are well fringed, 
measuring 3 1% to 4 inches across. The habit of growth is uniformly dwarf. 
Silver-Blue. The soft shade of silver-blue identical to the Hybrida Silver- 
Blue. We have developed this special strain out of Orchid Beauty. The 
flowers are well fringed and large. The growth is dwarf and compact. We 
consider this one of the noteworthy introductions.

NOTICE: All-Double Petunias are a highly bred type, and the seed is 
not as vigorous in growth as that of single strains. Seed of all our All- 
Double Petunjas has been carefully tested in soil, and the germination has 
been found to average 70 to 80 per cent. For this reason, and because of 
its high cost, we cannot entertain claims on non-germination of this seed 
or requests for replacements. If carefully handled, we know the seed will 
grow.
