Pansies 



Everyone loves Pansies and no flower responds more quickly to careful attention. It should be the desire of every gardener to grow 

 large Pansies with long, strong stems in a wide range of colors. For best results, Pansies should be sown in July or August for early 

 spring bloom and in the spring for autumn bloom. 



In germinating seed, allow plenty of ventilation. Keep the beds moist, but not soaking wet, until plants come up. Never allow 

 them to become dry, for that is absolutely fatal.
