PANSIES. The Pansy is, without doubt, the 
most popular of all flowering plants and 
is grown over the widest extent of coun* 
try. We would advuse sowing in shal- 
low drills in seed-bed early in spring 
when the trees are starting out in leaf, 
and again in September when the weather 
becomes cool. As above stated, plants 
from the spring-sown seed flower with 
great freedom throughout spring, sum- 
mer, and fall, while the stocky young 
plants grown in fall and winter produce 
the largest and finest flowers early the 
following spring.
