PANSY SEED 
The above list of Pansies is made up of some of 
the world's finest varieties and you may be sure 
of getting full satisfaction at a very reasonable 
price. If you have raised only the common kinds, 
try a few of the ones I offer here and you will be 
surprised at their size and wonderful colors. 
How to Sow Pansy Seeds —Sow the seeds in a 
cold frame in light soil without any fertilizer. Cover 
the seeds very lightly with the same soil and keep 
moist. Shade the seed bed with cheesecloth or a 
muslin screen, and as soon as all the plants are up 
remove the screen. Or you may sow them in a 
large pot or seed pan. During the fall is the best 
time to sow Pansy seeds. 
GERANIUM SEEDS 
We have a great many new hybrids which will be 
put on the market later. The flowers are twice and 
more in size than the varieties now. The clusters 
are much larger as well. The colors are mostly 
flame red. There won't be two alike and every one 
is new. 
Package 50c 6 packages $2.00 
1 oz. (about 3600 seeds) $25.00 
FREESIA SEEDS 
These are from my own hybrids. They run mostly 
in lavender, blue, purple, yellow and white. There 
are some among them with reddish and pink tints. 
Flowers mostly double the size of the regular kinds 
and even larger. They have long stems and I be¬ 
lieve there is nothing better in existence. I am in¬ 
creasing the stock from some of my finest and 
largest seedlings of the last few years and the 
seeds are taken from these. If sowed out early, 
many will flower five to six months after sowing. 
Pkg. 25c l / 2 oz. 50c 1 oz. $1.00 1 lb. $15.00 
Directions for Sowing: Sow the seeds right out in 
the open in subtropical and tropical localities. Put 
them in rows, twelve inches apart and about three 
seeds to the inch in the row. Cover the seeds with a 
good, rich soil one-quarter inch deep. In cold cli¬ 
mates, sow them out in boxes or seed pans, placing 
the seeds about one inch apart and one-fourth inch 
deep. Leave them there until the leaves have dried 
up, say about five to six months, and by that time 
they will have formed nice bulbs, which will bring 
large flower spikes the following winter. 
Fresno, Ohio, January 4, 1935. 
Mr. Richard Diener, Oxnard, Calif. 
Dear Sir: Please find my order enclosed for Petunia seeds. 
This is the third year that I ordered Petunia seeds from you 
and people who come to my greenhouse cannot get through 
talking about such wonderful Petunias. 
Yours truly, 
ARCHIE HAMILTON.
