Pansies F ? vorites For best results you must start 
with a good strain. The finest Pansies are, as a rule, 
shy seeders, which accounts for the difference in the price of 
the various mixtures offered. 
Spring 1 Planting*. Seed should be sown in hotbeds or boxes, 
then transplanted to open ground after freezing is over. It is a 
mistake to plant Pansies in the shade of a tree or building. During 
dry weather the bed 
should be watered 
daily, and in extreme 
cases twice a day for 
the best results. Cul¬ 
tural leaflet free upon 
request. 
Pall Planting*. 
Many gardeners pre¬ 
fer August sowing in 
hotbeds, covering well 
wjth straw, mulching 
with manure when 
winter sets in, grad¬ 
ually uncovering on 
warm days in early 
spring. These will pro¬ 
duce the early April 
blossoms. Pansies are 
successfully grown 
from seed even by the 
novice; however, we 
recommend our full- „ 
blooming plants. Ready Pansies, Denver Giants, 
in April.

Pinks, Heddewigi. 
Pptliniac A garden without these 
r-v iuii icsa favorites could hardly be 
called complete; there are few which 
equal them for effect. They commence 
blooming in July if sown outside in 
May, and continue to flower in great 
masses until destroyed by frost. Their 
culture is the most simple; any soil 
seems to suit them, while, of course, 
a good rich earth adds greatly to the 
richness of color. The various strains 
which we offer have been obtained 
from specialists, and we are confident 
that they will give satisfactory results. 
For early blooming sow early in the 
house and cultivate in small pots or 
flats till the weather has settled.
