Mauie's Giant Pansies 



Pansies for Profit 



Pansies are tlie most pinlitablc Howors for Tiarkct. Tlicy arc easy to grow, and easy to 



sell ill cities or small towns. Why not plan to grow them for sale next spring? 



for spring-flowering plants sow I^ansy seed in late .Inly and August, choosing a partially 



shaded place, and a deeply prepared, well ma ured soil. The seed bed must be 



kept moist at all limes, t'overing it with paper or cloth until tlie seed germinates will 



help. Transplant the seedlings when they are large enough to handle. I'ansies are hardy 



and will live over winter without a frame. Mulch the plants with straw, hay, or leaves 



after the ground has frozen. 



Kcmember that the I'ansy plants with the largest flowers command the highest prices; 



so select a large-flowering variety. Vou cannot go wrong with Mauie's Pansies — they are 



our greatest flower specialty.
