PANSIES. 



Pansies are too well known to require any description, as they are favorites 

 with all. For spring flowering the seed should be sown in autumn and pro- 

 tected during the winter. For summer blooming sow seed before the end of 

 March, and plant out where they will be afforded some shade from the noon- 

 day sun. Pansies require fresh soil, enriched with decomposed manur*;.
