 the immense flowers are of circular form and great substance. A 

 beautiful collection of colors and markings. 



26. GIANT KENILWORTH CUT FLOWER MIXTURE. Is a distinct class 

 by itself, surpassing all other strains as a cut flower for inside or 

 outside growing; the large flowers are carried erect above the 

 foliage on heavy stems, 7 or 8 In. long. In the most graceful man- 

 ner, and stand the hot, dry weather well. 



28. GIANT MASTERPIECE. A remarkable type; the curled, wavy petals 

 giving the flower a double appearance; large flowers of great sub- 

 stance, on long, strong stem. 



30. GIANT THREE AND ITVE BLOTCHED PANSIES. A superb mix- 

 ture. Flowers large and of circular form and of great substance.

 every shade of rich, velvety colors; reds are particularly conspicu- 

 ous; the petals being distinctly marked with three or flve large, 

 dark blotches.

 marked, mostly flve dark blotches on white and yellow ground; an 

 unusually showy mixture.

 bronze, Havana brown, mahogany and copper shades. 



3C. TRIUMPH OF GIANT. Remarkably beautiful. The imposing flve- 

 spotted flowers on long, vigorous stalks surmount the foliage in the 

 most graceful manner, are of enormous size, perfectly round and 

 of unusual substance. The Individual petals are very broad and 

 cover each other in such a manner as to make the flowers appear 

 almost double, the border of every petal being conspicuously curled. 



The plants are of a robust growth and form compact bushes of a 



round shape. 



40. GIANT BATH'S EMPRESS. The flnest of fancy English Pansies.

10. Kl^NILWORTH GIANT EXHIBITION is the very flnest complete mixture ever 

 sent out. Seed carefully saved only from marked plants of all varieties, with the 

 largest and best shaped flowers and richest coloring. It is impossible to convey 

 an adequate Idea of the delightful variations in color and markings of this un- 

 rivaled mixture. 500 seeds 80c, 1000 seeds 50c, % oz. $1.35, % oz. $2.50, oz. 

 $10.00. 



New Early-flowering, or Winter Blooming 



An entirely new and distinct strain of Pansies The main advantage of these 

 new Pansies over all hitherto existing Pansies is the extreme earliness of flowering. 

 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 flve large flowers 

 to a plant, when all other Pansies are only showing buds. The flowers are large, well 

 formed and fragrant.

20. PRINCESS. (The New Upright Pansy.) This strain Is entirely distinct from all 

 others. It is absolutely compact, upright growing. The flowers are mostly 

 blotched and frilled like the Masterpiece, of good form and heavy velvety tex- 

 ture on heavy stem carried well above the foliage. Attractive by brilliancy 



of its colors.

 free bloomer, with a range of delicate 

 colors that do not exist in any other 

 Pansies; a remarkable combination of
