GENERAL OBSERVATIONS. 
Vinca.—If sown early, in the house, will 
blossom same season; very bright shining 
green foliage, flowers are delightfully 
pleasing. 
Viola, Pansy.—Start earlyjn March in the 
house, if no greenhouse is convenient, a 
sunny window will answer. Sow lightly 
in fine loam, in a box or flower-pot, and 
transplant when well up. Transpunt sev¬ 
eral times before finally transplanting out 
doors. Pinch off the first buds as soon 
as they appear, and from early fall until 
the ground freezes you will have the lar¬ 
gest pansies possible to grow.
