ISBELL’S SUPERB PANSIES 
Pansies are the favorite of almost all flower lovers. Many years of scientific culture have grradually evolved a very 
superior race of luxurious, robust growth and drought-resisting qualities. The size and substance of the flowers 
have also been greatly improved. 
Pansies thrive best in cool, semi-shaded positions. The seed should be started in the house in early spring and plants 
set out when danger of frost is over, or plant in fall in a cold frame and winter over. Por late summer and fall bloom¬ 
ing, the seed may be sown out-of-doors m the spring.
