PANSIES. 



We make a specialty of 

 choice Pansies, and our col-

 varieties now in cultivation. 



The seedB may be sown any 

 time from September to 

 March, though our 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 ex- 

 hausted before the hot, dry 

 weather sets in.
