Petunia hybrida,Hort. Figs. 2880-2882. Common petunia, probably a hybridderiva- tive of the two preceding. For history, see Bailey, "Survival of the Unlike." P.M. 2: 173 (as P.nycta- giniflora violacea). B.M. 3556.—This type is remarkably variable, but it differs markedly from either parent: from P. axillaris in its broader tube and many colors; from P. violacea in its longer tube, wider limb, and many colors; from both in its much larger and multiform fls. and more stocky growth. In some of the strains, the fl. is very broad and open, measuring 4 or 5 in. across. There are types with the fls. deeply fringed; others with star-like markings radiating from the throat and extending nearly or quite to the margin of the limb; others with full double fls. The colors range from white to deep red-purple, and variously striped and barred. There are forms of very dwarf and compact habit. CH The above text is from the Standard Cyclopedia of Horticulture.
