Dreer's Perfect Giant Pansies 



Pansies of real outstanding merit are possible only from 

 seed which has been carefully selected from the finest and best 

 plants. We feel confident that Dreer's Pansy Seeds will give en- 

 tire satisfaction to the most critical gardener. Give Pansies a 

 sunny position in the garden where they receive ample fresh air 

 and be sure they are supplied with sufficient moisture and a good, 

 rich, carefully prepared soil. Early spring sowing will produce 

 plants which will bloom during the summer and fall, but by far the 

 best time to sow is during August and early September to produce 

 vigorous bushy plants for spring blooming. Such plants require 

 the protection of evergreen boughs to carry through the winter 

 without injury. Sow the seed in drills covering not more than four 

 times their diameter and firm the soil well above them to encourage 

 satisfactory germination. The seed bed should be kept moderately 

 moist until the young plants appear above the soil surface. Trans- 

 plant or thin to stand 9 inches apart and give good cultivation so 

 that the plants may develop to perfection.
