46 BARR & SUGDEN'S COMPENDIUM 



Yl'OLA (Heartsease, or Pansy), Nat. Orel. Viola! cece. Hardy perennials. 

 Seedlings flower the first season, so that in autumn their colours may be 

 arranged for spring decoration. 



In the spring garden the Pansy is chief, flowering continuously, and producing a matchless effect 



when grouped in masses of distinct colours, or associated with other spring flowers. 

 Viola Cornuta and Calcarata did such wonderful service as decorative plants in the summer of 1807, 



that they now rank as first class plants for beds, ribbons, edgings, and panels. Per pkt.
