DWARF COMPACT PETUNIAS 
THE PERFECT BORDER 
(Hybrid Nana Compacta) ha, or hhp. 1 ft. 
Plants are dwarf and compact, 10-12 in. high and 
form round mound-like plants which suits them 
well to the border. Very free flowering, the 
plants are covered with bloom from early summer 
until frost. The flowers are of medium size 1%2- 
2 in. in diameter. This is the best type for borders, 
edgings for taller plants. They also make shapely 
pot plants or window box subjects.

PETUNIA CULTURE 
This is covered more fully on page 11 of ‘The 
Gardener’s Handbook” sent free with your order. 
We treat all seeds of Petunias with Semesan to 
help prevent ‘‘damping off’? which together with 
covering too deeply causes more failures than 
anything else. The seed may be sown indoors 
about 8 weeks before your usual outdoor plant- 
ing time to give you blooming plants in early 
June, and because the seed are small should be 
sown in boxes and transplanted even when 
planting late.
