MASTERPIECE— NEW GIANT CURIilD. 



This strain comes nearer to ' Uoublc Pansic-s ' than anything ever intro- 

 duced 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 .1 inches across, and the color variations and combinations are odd 

 and .striking. Trade pkt 35c, % oz 00c, '^ oz $1.00, oz $4.00.
