 main features of this extraordinary mixture. It embraces an endless

 will find the finest self colors including, white, yellow, pink, rose, 

 blue, purple, and the rare, desirable red shades. Others have clearly

 wide and flaring, others have attractively waved petals of graceful 

 appearance. Each year we follow closely the new creations intro- 

 duced by Pansy specialists from all over the world and secure every-

1600 Maule's Giant Phenomenal This lovely mixture has not lost its appeal 

 ever since we introduced it to the American public years ago. We have continually 

 improved upon it, and thousands of our friends now know and greatly admire these 

 lovely flowers. The strain originated in France, and consists of only the largest, 

 choicest, and most "phenomenal" specimens that could be selected. Phenomenal 

 Pansies come in a wide range of most exquisite colors and color combinations, in- 

 cluding those captivating wine-red shades so rare among Pansies. We urge every- 

 one to include a packet or two in his order. Pkt. ISc; 1/16 oz. 40c; Vs oz. 70c. 



Maule's 

 Giant Pansies 



Ever since we have been in business we have given partic- 

 ular attention to Pansy seed. Year after year we have care- 

 fully re-selected our strains, (and are still doing so) to be 

 quite sure to maintain the high standard for which Maule's 

 Pansy seeds are known to our many customers both here 

 in our own United States and abroad. And we know from 

 the many testimonials sent us that we have been success- 

 ful in our efforts. Maule's Pansy seeds can be relied upon 

 to produce long stemmed, mammoth size flowers of heavy 

 substance and the most refined colors imaginable. Pansies 

 grow to perfection in open sunny locations in rich, deeply 

 spaded soil which should be moderately moist but well 

 drained. Sow the seed early in the spring in a carefully 

 prepared bed and keep the planting evenly moist. When 

 large enough to handle, transplant to where to bloom. 

 Midsummer planting — the latter part of July or early 

 August — will produce blooming plants early the following 

 spring. 



1594 Oregon Giants, Mixed As implied in the name, this strain is of American 

 origin. It has truly giant flowers of a size heretofore unknown in Pansies. The fine 

 broad petals are somewhat more flattened than those of most other strains, which 

 accounts for the large size of the blooms. Specimen flowers, 4 in. across, carried 

 upright on strong stems, are not unusual. A wide range of charming colors.
