Burpee’s Alldouble PETUNIAS 
Burpee’s Alldouble Petunias are truly gor- 
geous. The seeds are obtained at such high cost 
by hand-pollination that they are worth many 
times their weight in gold. Because seeds are so 
extremely valuable, extra care should be used 
in sowing them. Start seeds indoors in shallow 
boxes, pots or seed-pans eight weeks before 
your usual outdoor planting time; set young 
plants in the garden when weather and soil 
have become warm. All are excellent for beds, 
borders, window boxes, pot plants and cut- 
ting; wherever used, their extraordinary 
beauty commands instant admiration. These 
hybrid double petunias are most beautiful. 
2466 COLOSSAL SHADES OF ROSE 
The first giant alldouble petunia ever created in 
America and the biggest double petunia ever known, 
many flowers growing over 5 in. across. All are fully 
double varying in form from those with crisply fringed 
petals to those with nicely ruffled ones. 
This variation in flower form adds interest to a 
planting as does the difference in color, which ranges 
trom salmony pink through rose-pink to deep, rich, 
rosy mauve—a most attractive blending of rose shades. 
Plants are strong growing, 20 in. tall, spreading as much 
as 3 ft. across and bearing their immense’ alldouble 
blooms in the greatest profusion. Valuable for garden 
and cutting. All-America Silver Medal Winner.
