PANSY. Too much importance cannot be 
attached to the culture of these beauti¬ 
ful plants. For early spring blooming 
the seed should be sown in July or 
August and the plants protected dur¬ 
ing winter. Early spring sown seed 
will give fine blooms during summer 
and fall. A good, cool, rich soil is 
essential. Rotted cow manure is the 
best fertilizer, and one cannot use too 
much. No fertilizer of a heating nature 
should be used; give plenty of water 
through dry weather. You cannot grow 
good Pansies under trees.
