No. 



PANSY. 



( Viola Tricolor.) 



For many years choice Pansy Seeds have been a 

 specialty with us. By repeated personal visits we have 

 made ourselves familiar with the strains of the leading 

 specialists in the several countries of Europe, with whom 

 we contract yearly for seeds. We are thus enabled to 

 offer the finest in existence. 



Pansies thrive best in a cool, moist, but well-drained 

 soil, enriched with well-rotted barnyard manure or fine 

 ground bone. Seeds sown in spring in a partially shaded 

 situation will produce fine plants for autumn flowering. 

 The finest blooms are to be obtained, however, by sowing 

 in luly or August, giving the plants protection during 

 winter, when they will bloom profusely in the spring and 

 summer.
