VAL FXHIBITION pANSIES. 



UREER'S PERFECT PANSIES. 



PANSIES ai-e too well known to require any description, as they are favorites with all. For best results you must start with a 

 good strain. The finest Pansies are, as a rule, shy seeders, which accounts for the difference in the prices of the various- 

 mixtures offered below. For spring flowering ihe seed should be sown in autumn and protected during the winter. For 

 summer blooming sow seed in the spring, if possible, in a cool spot where they will be afforded some shade from the noonday 

 sun. Pansies do best in fresh soil, enriched with thoroughly decomposed manure.
