ALLDOUBLE PETUNIAS 
F, Hybrids 
Alldouble Petunias are truly gorgeous. 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 plant- 
ing 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 cutting. Wherever 
used, the extraordinary beauty of the well-formed double 
blooms, together with their marvelous colors, are sure to 
command instant admiration.

attractive blending of rose shades.
