The Pansy is de.servedly the most popular flower of the times. The plants bloom in great profusion from early Sum- 

 mer until after frost, and the truly royal colors are a constant surprise and delight. We devote special attention to the 

 selection of Pansy seed, and the stock of every variety we offer is the best that can be had regardless of expense. Our 

 celebrated strain of Imperial German Pansy still holds its own, a splendid collection of which will be found on page 82.
