HAND POLLINATION — PETUNIAS 
Just one of the many steps where care and skill go into 
the production of our seeds. 
PRICES AND POLICIES 
In view of the uncertain labor and material costs, we 
do not feel that our prices can safely be lowered, but we 
are holding them at our 1950 crop levels in every instance 
except where necessary to correct inequalities in scaling 
the smaller amcunts to improve the dealers’ margin. 
Our terms are 1% ten days, net thirty. All shipments 
are prepaid. Orders received via air mail are shipped via 
air mail and, in every instance where possible, orders are 
filled and shipped the same day they are received. Every 
order is triple checked for accuracy and is packed care- 
rully. 
Seeds are available in quantities as listed. Open polin- 
ated varieties of snapdragons, with the exception of va- 
rieties introduced by us, are available only in bulk. Our 
own snapdragon introductions, both hybrid and line bred, 
are offered in originator packets only. 
ALL-DOUBLE PETUNIAS 
Although we are becoming well known for our work at 
breeding and production of Hybrid Snapdragons, Double 
Petunias still receive the greater share of emphasis with 
us, and are still our greatest source of pride. Nation-wide 
trials by the Mens’ Garden Clubs of America rated our 
ALLEGRO the top annual for 1950 and all our entries, 
which included the other doubles and TANGO, BOLERO, 
and LA PALOMA, rated in the top ten. 
One of our largest customers, who often warns us of 
the candid nature of their trial ground notes, sent us a 
copy of their notes on the improved CAPRICE which 
started off thus: “How good can a double petunia get?” 
This year we are happy to add RHAPSODY to our list 
of all double petunias. This new one is the most uniform 
Dwarf Giant All-Double Petunia we have seen. Its huge 
fringed flowers are a rich Burgundy Wine-Purple and no 
doubt. will prove very popular. Try it.
