New Early Flowering Giant Pansies 



Or Winter Blooming 



An entirely new and distinct strain of Pansies. The main advan- 

 tage of these new Pansies over all hitherto existing Pansies is the 

 extreme earliness of flowering and its unusual hardiness, which enables 

 them to withstand quite severe Winters, and to bloom right on into 

 the Summer. Sown at the same time as other Pansies, they begin 

 flowering the early part of March or as soon as the snow is off the 

 ground, many times having four or five large flowers to a plant, when 

 all other Pansies are only showing buds. The flowers are large, well 

 formed and fragrant. They are highly recommended for Autumn 

 planting on graves, and for very early bedding, as well as for early 

 cut flowers. Each color separate or mixed.

 mountains. They expect to return in 

 September, ready for a busy fall season. 



Most of the west end florists are en- 

 gaged in the clean-up season and are 

 making improvements of all kinds for 

 the opening of the fall season. C. Young 

 & Sons Co. is redecorating the interior 

 of the Olive street store. 



Adolph Steidle, son of John Steidle, 

 is helping out at Vandervoort's flower 

 department in the absence of those on 

 vacation. David Geddis still is on the 

 job, but expects to take his vacation 

 after August 1. 



While most of the florists' clubs 

 throughout the country dispense with 

 meetings during the summer, the St. 

 Louis Florists' Club thrives on the 

 meetings during these months. The 

 meetings are held outdoors and the en- 

 tertainment features bring out large at- 

 tendances. The membership, too, is al- 

 ways increased at these meetings, more
