Giant nr TrimardEau PansiEB. <n**a*i 



These remarkably large Pansies, for size of flower and robust 

 growth eclipse by all odds any known strain. Unfortunately, as yet 

 we have not a large variety of color in them ; but their immense size 

 and vigorous habit more than compensate, for they get such a 

 start in the spring that the hot summer weather seems to have no 

 effect on them, even when other Pansies haA - e almostdwindled away. 

 Giant Striped. Mahogany, striped with yellow and gold. 

 Giant Blue. Bright ultramarine blue, with purple eye. 

 Giant Golden. Fine golden yellow, with rich brown blotches. 

 Giant Black. Magnificent velvety black. 

 Giant White. Pure white, with three dark blue blotches. 

 Giant Purple. Royal purple, with an elegant velvety lustre. 

 Giant Violet and Gold. A perfectly gorgeous variety. 

 Giant Margined. Purple, shaded heliotrope, flower edged white. 

 Giant (Trimardeau) Pansy. Mixed colors. Per pkt. 150 seeds, 25c. 



HESE charming and universal favorites are now much 



improved iu size, shape and color. One can scarcely 



realize that the modest little Pansy of a few years 



back could assume such grand proportions and such 



gaudy colors as the sorts now offered. (See cut.) 



The above cut illustrates some of our best strains of Pansy, "viz.: 

 No. 1. Henderson's Highland; No. 2. Giant Trimardeau; No. 3. 

 Henderson's Fancy ; No. 4. German Mixed ; No. 5. Good Mixed ; 

 No. 6. White' Treasure. 



HENDERSON'S NEW MAMMOTH BUTTERFLY 

 PANSY. (Seepage 88, and, Colored Plate, page 89.) 



lenderson's highland Pansy, 



This is a typical Scotch strain, especially grown for us 

 by the most celebrated Pansy specialist in Scotland, a 

 country whose climatic conditions are conducive to the production 

 of the best Pansies in the world. Their merit consists in uniformity 

 of clear, distinct markings, high colors, great substance, perfect 

 form, and all the flowers are of the largest size and of unswpassed 

 beauty in myriad forms and markings. Mixed Colors (see No. 1), 

 50 cts. per packet. Per Pkt. 

 Pansy, Henderson's Fancy Mixed. (See No. 3.) 25 



This strain originated with a celebrated Belgian specialist, and we intro- 

 duced it several years ago. and it has given the highest satisfaction through- 

 out the country. They are, perhaps, not as large as the new "Highland" 

 and " Butterfly " strains, but it is not surpassed for rich and varied colors. 



Odier or Five Blotched. A beautiful strain, perfect in 



size and form of flower, containing many beautiful colors ; 

 each of the 5 petals is marked with a large dark blotch ; 



very effective 25
