MASTERPIECE— NEW GIANT CURLED. 



This strain comes nearer to "Double Pansies" than anything ever introduced 

 under that name. In reality the number of petals is the same as that in other 

 Pansy flowers, but they are crimped and curled in such a fashion that the 

 flowers appear double. The flowers are of enormous size, often 3 inches across, 

 and the color variations and combinations are odd and striking. Trade
