SPECIALTIES 
VIOLA ODORATA “ROSINA” 
A true hardy garden violet with single flowers,, soft pink in color, possessed 
of the most delicious perfume of which a violet is capable. 
“Rosina” blooms outdoors in early spring for a few weeks, but its long 
blooming season is in the autumn. Beginning the first of September the blos¬ 
soms appear continually all the fall, the flowers becoming larger with longer 
stems, and the color deeper, as the weather becomes cooler. If the plants are 
kept in a frame, flowers can be picked all winter. 
“Rosina” is a strong grower and should be divided every other year. It 
blooms best in full sun but will stand some shade in summer. The chief re¬ 
quirements are rich soil and plenty of moisture. It is very hardy and in winter 
needs only the usual protection of straw or peat moss to preserve the foliage.

two colors making a delightful and unusual picture.
