The seeds may be sown any time from September to March, though onr 

 experience teaches us to know that those spring-sown— that is, during January, 

 February and March— bloom better during the hot. dry weather in summer than 

 those that have been sown in September and "wintered over " in cold frames; 

 these bloom earlier, but get exhausted before the hot, dry weather of summer

Currie's Superfine Scotch Pansy. 



We don't remember ever having introduced a flower seed that gave the uni- 

 versal satisfaction that this beautiful strain of Pansy has given. We have it 

 Baved for us by one of the largest and most noted Pansy growers in Scotland 

 from varieties that have received the first premium at the International Flower 

 Shows of Great Britain and other prominent exhibitions for a number of years, 

 and to-day it remains pre-eminently the finest strain of 

 Pansy In cultivation. 



It is unexcelled by any in size of flower (many of the single blooms meas- 

 uring over 3 inches across), and for richness of color and beautiful markings it 

 has no equal. Scotch growers have for many years excelled those of any other 

 nation in producing fine Pansies; not only is their climate peculiarly adapted 

 to the cultivation of the Pansy, but it has long been es-teemed by them as one of 

 the most beautiful flowers, and great care has been taken iu perfecting it. This 

 strain contains innumerable varieties, each vying with the other in beauty and 

 grandeur of its markings. Per packet 25
