36 Annual Flower Seeds 
Templin-Bradley’s Glorious Petunias 
Petunia Culture D or E—See Page 20 
For freedom of bloom, variety of color, form and general effectiveness. Petunias 
have no equal. If only a little care is bestowed upon them, Petunias will produce their 
handsome sweet-scented flowers in their delicate and gorgeous colors all summer. 
No other flowers will bloom so freely and as long as Petunias in hot, dry weather. 
Many of our Petunias are of recent introduction and ‘we recommend that you try 
some of these new kinds. 
For your convenience on these two pages we have grouped separately those Pe- 
tunias having similar habits of growth or types of flower. 
Last summer while visiting our Trial Grounds with a local customer, he said, 
“Tf I had known what a wide assortment of Petunias of rare beauty is available, I 
would have gone in for them this year. Watch me next year.”’ : 
Many of the leading florists of the United States use our Petunia Seed in large 
quantities every year. This is one of the best recommendations for the quality be- 
cause the Florist must make his living from what he grows. You get the best when 
you buy from us. 
‘May we suggest you study these Petunia pages carefully.
