Description

Small Flowered Single
Double Blotched
R2
Single Blotched
Superbissima
The large flowered varieties of Petunia, often four inches in diameter, are best for single
plants or little groups; the small flowered varieties are best for showy beds. Seed sown in
the spring will produce flowering plants in June. Set the plants about 18 inches apart. They
come pretty true from seed, but are not reliable in this respect, being inclined to sport. They
do well sown in a cold-frame, hot bed, or in the open ground. Few plants will make a more
showy bed, giving flowers from early summer until after frost. The seeds of the Double
Petunia do not possess as much vitality as those of the single, and care must be used to get
them to germinate; nor will they all come double. Annuals.

Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.

This file has been identified as being free of known restrictions under copyright law, including all related and neighboring rights.

This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
