Petunia, Alldouble America 

Petunia, Radiance 
PETUNIAS (a) Grp. 2 
Petunias cannot be equalled for beds or borders and are one of the most popular summer- 
flowering annuals. They have a long flowering season, preferring fuli sun although the ruffled 
and double types will do nicely in partial shade and grow well in any kind of soil. For early 
blooms, plant in flats for transplanting after frost danger is past. For summer and fall blooms, 
plant in the open beds when weather permits. Scatter seed thinly on an even, well prepared 
soil and cover lightly with fine silt or sand, pressing firmly with a board so that seed adheres 
to the soil. A light mulch of barnyard fertilizer or peat moss is beneficial in maintaining moisture. 
Keep beds moist but do not overwater. Petunias grow 1 to 114 feet high, except miniatures and 
dwarf single types which attain only 8 inches or less.
