well -decomposed manure. When the weather is dry, in summer, copious waterings will secure finer flower spikes 
and after the first flowering, if the plants are cut down, fresh flower spikes will be produced, and the display 
thus considerably prolonged. Coal ashes strewn over the crowns in autumn will protect the plants from the 
depredations of slugs in winter and spring.

FOR FLOWER BEDS, BORDERS, EDGINGS, WINDOW BOXES, ETC. 
These Tufted Pansies are among the most valuable and decorative of spring and summer bedding plants ;

addition of fresh soil to root into, they will maintain a continual display from spring to autumn. A mulching of 
cocoa fibre in summer is good. Fuller descriptions will be found in our General Plant Catalogue.
