PANSY, GIANTS OF CALIFORNIA 
PANSY p 
Greatly improved by the plant breeders, petunias 
are constantly advancing in importance in our gar¬ 
dens and decorations. Their great merit is constant 
and prolific flower production from early summer 
until fall. They have been vastly improved in color¬ 
ing, giving us some of the finest pink and blue tones 
obtainable; while the large flowering single and 
double varieties produce flowers of a size and exquis¬ 
ite beauty seldom equaled. For solid beds, ribbon 
planting, groups, in borders, in flagged walks and 
terraces or for porch and window boxes they serve 
well. They like the full sun. 
TUFTED PANSIES (Viola Cornuta), These Tufted 
Pansies are coming more into use as garden 
lovers discover their adaptability to so many 
places in the garden. As plants, for the rockery, 
nothing can take their place. The flowers are 
not as large as the regular type of Pansies, but 
they bloom more profusely and withstand hot. 
dry weather and can be treated as hardy plants.

Pansies thrive best in a moist, shady location and 
in rich, loamy soil. Seed should be sown in the 
autumn for early spring blossoms, or can be sown 
early in the year for good flowers late in the spring. 
The plants must be transplanted twice in order to 
get the largest flowers—once from the seed-box to 
a chosen bed, and again to the open garden. This is 
important if large-sized Pansies are desired. Use 
manure liberally. The blossoms are usually larger 
in the spring and again in the fall, but are small dur¬ 
ing the hot months.
