BEAUTIFUL BEDDING PETUNIAS For outdoor decoration, porcli, or window boxes, or any position where a mass of color is wanted, we do not know of any plant that equals the Bedding Petunias for effectiveness, and that will give such a wealth of charming color over so long a season. They begin flowering early and continue a sheet of bloom without interruption until killed by frost. The six Bedding sorts offered below were selected for their com- pact growth and distinct coloring. To secure the longest season of bloom, the seed should be started indoors or in a hot-bed in March or .\pril, or may be sown directly where they are wanted to bloom in May or as soon as the weather has become settled and warm. The seed is very minute, and should be sown practically on the surface of nicely prepared soil and merely pressed in. It will greatly aid in the even dis- tribution of the seed if mixed with sand or flour. For best results the plants should be set about a foot apart, and preferably given a sunny position. The large-flowering Single and Double Fringed, and Ruffled sorts will be found offered on page 101. PKT. ;0 IS 15 15 3i£i)iJixG Petunia Ro General Dodds. Rich gUttering crimson garnet $0 50 Snowball.
