PETUNIA CULTURE 
This is covered more fully on page 11 of ‘“‘The 
Gardener’s Handbook” sent free with your order. 
We treat all seeds of Petunias with Semesan to 
help prevent “damping 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 plant- 
ing time to give you blooming plants in early 
June, and because the seed are small should be 
sown in boxes and_ transplanted even when 
planting late. 
BALCONY-—Large Flowered Bedding 
(Pendula) ha, or hhp. 1% ft. This is the strongest 
growing of all Petunias, and succeeds under the 
most trying conditions. 
Habit is trailing with long branches which are 
covered with bloom. Flowers are larger than the 
Hybrida Bedding type 2%-3 in. across. This type 
should be used for mass effect in beds, and the 
pendulous habit suits it ideally to hanging baskets 
or porch boxes.
