A STANDASD PANSY. 



There is in England a National 

 Pansy and Viola Society. It has 

 adopted the following standard for 

 pansies: 



Form. — The outline should be a per- 

 fect circle and free of every notch, ser- 

 rature, or unevenness, the petals lying 

 closely and evenly on each other. 



Texture. — The petals should be thick, 

 and of a rich, glossy, velvety appear- 

 ance. 



Color. — In all the flowers the ground 

 color, of whatever shade, should be per- 

 fectly alike in all the three lower 

 petals, and should be circular, and of 

 equal width between the blotch and the 

 belt in the three lower petals. The 

 colors in the top petals may run into 

 each other. The margin of the under 

 petal should be regular and distinct, 

 as also the margins of the two side 

 petals of the flower. The margins of 

 the three petals should all meet, and 

 form, as it were, three parts of a circle. 

 The blotch should be large, dense and 

 solid, and of a circular character, free 

 from all running into or through the 

 ground color, or the eye. 



Eye. — This should be bright gold or 

 orange, and solid, without mixing or 

 running into the blotch, and should be 

 exactly in the center of the bloom. 



Size. — The larger bloom, other prop- 

 erties being equal, should be the better, 

 but no flower should be considered flt 

 for competition under two and one-half 

 inche: diameter. 



Selfs. — Of whatever color should be 

 of the same shade throughout, in yel- 

 low, white, blue, or any other shade; 

 the denser the blotch the better.
