\ [ /HESE chai-ming and universal favoi'ites are now much 

 ■'J_'- improved in size, shape and color by Scotch, French and 

 German specialists, and we have arrangements with 

 them to test all of their novelties and improved strains, from 

 which we have again selected. 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 new 

 sorts now offered. (See cut.)

Especially grown for us by the originator, who is one of 

 the most celebrated Pansy specialists in Scotland, a country 

 whose climatic conditions are conducive to the best develop- 

 ment of the plant. The merit of Henderson's Highland Pansy con- 

 sist in its uniformity, all the flowers being of the largest size, high in 

 color, and of unsurpassed beauty. In our trials we were unable to 

 find, a poor or inferior flower. As it is offered only in mixed colors, 

 we shall not attempt to describe the myriad forms and markings. 

 Mixed Colors (see No. 2), 50 cts. per packet. Per Pkt. 

 Pansy, Henderson's Fancy Mixed (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. 



Pansy, Premier Mixed. A beautiful French strain ; flowers 



large, and the colors and markings are exceedingly beautiful. 50 



Giant ( Trimardeau ), Mixed. For size no strain can equal this. 25 



Odier or Five Blotched. A beautiful strain, perfect in

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



very effective 25
