FRINGED and RUFFLED VARIETIES 
POT PLANT TYPES 
The past several years’ breeding work has yielded several new 
Petunia varieties which seem admirably adapted to pot plant 
growth, but are not so universally useful for outdoor planting. 
Outdoors in an ideal environment these varieties will be quite 
attractive; but where conditions are not ideal they will appear 
somewhat inferior to their stronger-growing brothers, such as 
F, Hybrids, Doubles, California Giants, Ruffled Grandifloras, 
etc. So we have taken the liberty of listing the following va- 
rieties separately to indicate a special adaptability to growth 
in pots in the greenhouse in spring. Many of the Petunias 
listed on the preceding 7 pages also make ideal pot plants. 
Check variety descriptions for our recommendations.
