1610 Improved 

 Swiss Giants Mixed 



When first offered a few years ago 

 these richly colored Pansies created 

 a sensation, but today they are even 

 lovelier from constant selection and 

 careful breeding. The blooms are 

 extremely large. They are quite 

 round, and crinkled and fluted in 

 the most artistic manner. The colors 

 have special depth and richness, 

 and there is a predominance of rich 

 red and many unusual shades. The 

 flowers are marked with blotches of 

 deeper contrasting color. Pkt. 2Sc ; 

 1/16 oz. 60c; Vs oz. $1.00. 



1600 Giant Phenomenal 



Mixed Colors Again this Phenomenal mixture is 

 cordially recommended to Maule customers. 

 Though it was introduced to the American public 

 years ago, it has been constantly improved upon. 

 Originating in France, this mixture consists of the 

 largest, choicest, and most "phenomenal" of 

 Pansies. It is especially rich in Pansies of the 

 rufl^ed type, and there are many and varied colors 

 and color combinations. The presence of many 

 Pansies of those wine-red shades so rare among 

 flowers has endeared it to many Maule customers. 

 Every order should include it.

1594 Oregon Giants 



Superfine Mixture Especially grown for us in 

 Oregon; flowers are of the largest size — well-grown 

 flowers measuring 4 in. across. A gracefully waved 

 edge adds to the charm of these giant flowers, 

 which otherwise are more flattened than other 

 Pansies. Quite as fine a characteristic as the size 

 of these Pansies, is their extra-long stems. Those 

 planning to grow Pansies for market might well se- 

 lect this, for the flowers from them are of unrivalled 

 size, sure to attract customers and warrant asking 

 a higher price for the plants. Colors range from 

 white to richest purple. 



Pkt. 35c; 1/16 oz. $1.00; Vs oz. $1.75. 



1614 Maulers Prize Mixed 



An endless variety of the most beautiful colors; 

 very large flowers. Is it any wonder that this 

 is the most popular Pansy Miifture of which we 

 know? It exhibits the greatest diversity of colors, 

 in the most beautiful soft and deep rich shades. 

 There are the finest self-colors including white, 

 yellow, pink, rose, blue, purple and the rare and 

 desirable red shades. Some of the Pansies are 

 veined and bordered with contrasting colors, while 

 others have clearly defined mahogany-brown, black 

 or purple eyes. Some are wide and flaring, while 

 others are attractively waved. They are large, 3 in. 

 and more across, of perfect form, heavy substance, 

 and very long-stemmed.
