Giant Pansies 
This very popular annual needs little description. Good results 
may be obtained from sowing seed in July and August in a light, 
cool, but well-moistened soil, enriched with a slight amount of barn¬ 
yard manure or fine-ground bone. Sow seed in drills, covering them 
five times their diameter, and firm soil. Water once a day, except in 
very dry weather, when they may be watered twice a day. Seed will 
germinate in about two weeks and should not be allowed to dry out. 
A thin covering of newspapers will prevent this. When plants are 
large enough to handle, transplant to a distance of i foot apart. 
Where greenhouse and coldframe facilities are at hand, and summer- 
sown plants are protected during winter, they will be in bloom in April. 
The Pastoral Giants embrace a wider range of striking colors than 
any other class of Pansy. Many of the blossoms are frilled and sweetly 
perfumed; all are large. The plant is a close, compact grower and is 
most vigorous. We recommend Pastoral Giants to every grower of 
choice Pansies.
