PREVIOUS VICTORIOUS STRAINS 
Victorious All Double Petunias 
Our Victorious Petunias are not large in flower size, but being dwarf 
and compact in growth it has its place as pot plant and for outdoor. 
It’s greatest defect, however, was its somewhat high percentage of small 
flowering doubles. It usually did run from 20% to 50%. We have studied 
it carefully and found the way to avoid it. Many of our 1955 supply 
of Victorious are all or nearly all large-flowered doubles. Other qualities 
remain unchanged. We put asteroides marks showing such improved strains 
which have less small flowering doubles. 
Victorious, Formula Mixed Colors 
Since we have developed nearly all large flowering all doubles, our mixed 
colors have greately bettered. It may not be 100% large flowered but the 
percentage of small doubles are remarkably lessened. Moreover the blend 
of color will be greately improved. 
* Victorious, Attraction Reselected 
All plants are remarkably uniform in habit. Color is rich bright rose 
with sharp contrasting variation of purest white. This new strain is almost 
all large flowered. 
Victorious, Gaiety 
Extra dwarf and compact form, so even that every plant looks like a 
duplicate of the other, with large well fringed, full double flowers. ‘The color 
is beautifully striped and mottled with bright rose and white. This is a very 
popular strain among the florist. 
* Victorious, Blue Brocade Reselected 
A good velvety violet blue color which we won Silver Medal in All 
America Selections. Our new strain is almost all large flowered.
