flowers, but sweet and pretty. Packet, 3 cents.

PANSIES. Our selection of this well-known flower is, we believe, the best that is 

 offered anywhere for size, variety and beauty, and have no equal. To grow pansies 

 and secure the largest and best flowers, the seed should be sown in January and Feb- 

 ruary in the greenhouse or in boxes in the house. Care should be taken to spray 

 the young plants daily to keep off vermin. Plant out as soon as favorable to the 

 open; grow in deep, rich soil. Remember, for pansies the soil cannot be too rich, 

 and your trouble is amply repaid by the beauty of the flowers. Pansies will stand 

 winter as far north as New York City; to secure good plants for winter, seed in July 

 and plant in beds in September and October. Pansies are in every way much 

 more satisfactory for beds over winter than Hyacinths and Tulips. Packet, 3 cents. 



PETUNIA. Annuals of great merit. A bed well placed with this plant will more 

 than repay for the little care necessary. They commence flowering early and con- 

 tinue until frost. Good soil and a sunny location is all that is necessary. All the 

 colors of the rainbow are to be found in our mixture. Packet, 3 cents. 



PHLOX DRUMMONDII. Of Brilliant summer-flowering annuals the Phlox Drum- 

 mondii is unquestionably one of the most popular and satisfactory. Seed sown in the 

 open ground after danger of frost is past, will, in a few weeks produce a beautiful 

 effect and continue to bloom the entire season. As a cut flower for house or 

 church decoration, it is one of the best. Packet, 3 cents, 



PINKS (CHINESE.) Our mixture contains the most popular varieties, producing
