"THE KENILWORTH STRAIN " of 



GIANT PANSY SEED 



^^^K-i^^SS^^ Must not be compared with the flimsy Trimardeau 



It is much larger and of good substauce; the immense 

 dowt'is, of 31/2 to 4 inches, are of perfect form, and every 

 tint and shade is produced in striking combinations and 

 endless variations of beautiful colors and markings. The 

 Stock Plants are most critically selected. It is rich with 

 shades of brown, bronze, red, mahogany, and many others too numerous to men- 

 tion. Light, Medium or Dark Mixtures. Read what Growers say about my strains 

 of Pansy Seed in HORTICULTURE of July 20.
