MISS MARY E. MARTIN, FLORAL PARK, NEW YORK. 
My Pansy Department. 
I not only aim to make my list include all standard as well as the best 
new sorts, but I strive, regardless of price, to import only the best 
quality of each particular kind, and always give my customers “ new crop ” seed. My Pansies are second to none 
offered by any other in this country. 
INTERNATIONAL The World’s Best PANSIES 
My International Pansy Mixture is, and always 
has been, literally a “World’s Best” Mixture. 
While searching the world over among the growers 
for the best in every land, we are not satisfied to 
accept any mixture because varied in color, 
but the flowers must come near a high stand¬ 
ard of form which we have set, must be 
composed of well-rounded, perfect-shaped 
.flowers, must show a wide range of colorings 
and marking's, must have thick, velvety 
petals with fluted or semi-double edges, and 
must stand erect on good stiff stems with 
healthy, strong growth of plant. While every 
solid color must be represented, there is also 
all possible variations of each one of these. 
The whites have all possible variations of 
stripes, veinings and shadings. The same is 
true of the yellows, purples, browns, reds 
and other distinct shades, besides many 
shades of pink, mahogany, fire -colored, 
bronze-gold, etc. 
At the Pan-American Exposition 
they were awarded first prize. They 
are a Gold Medal brand.
