* It Bhould be di^tinotly anderotood, and undoubtedly eo, that many mtetake? 
and dlBappointmente aripe from the name “SHOW PANSY,” !<*>■ that title is 
mieleadingto yoonff be^innere and amateurs. The Pansy shown under that heading 
ie very small and of only one or two colours, and but seldom shown at exhibitions 
nowadays. Formerly it was the only class of bloom staged; but since the intro, 
ductlon of the ** Fancy Pansy,” they hav’e quibe excelled the old “Show.” Many 
persons therefore thin\ because the Fancies are the only kinds met with at all the 
arge exhibitions they are “ Show Pansies.’* That le not so, forthe difference between 
them are as distinct as Show and Fancy Dahlias. One is limited to a few colours, 
whereas the other has a much wider ranee of colour, and also larger flowers and 
broader petals, the markings not so even and regular in their colouration ae the old 
Show Pansy. We wish all onr customers to make themselves thoroughly acquainted 
with these observatione when ordering their Pansy Seed.
