NEW EARLY-BLOOMING HARDY 
PANSIES 
This new type of Pansy is valuable on account 
of its hardiness and earliness. If given slight 
protection they will be found perfectly hardy in 
this latitude and even farther north, beginning 
to bloom about the end of March. Flowers are 
very large and have a sweet perfume.

PORTULACA 
This charming little hardy annual is unrivaled 
for brilliancy among plants of low growth, and, 
although it flourishes under almost all conditions, 
hot sun and a light, sandy soil suit it best. Noth¬ 
ing is prettier for beds, edgings, rockwork, etc. 
As an undergrowth for taller plants it is also 
valuable. Through the driest, hottest seasons 
it flourishes amazingly, carpeting the ground with 
a mat of succulent foliage that, in the forenoon, 
is hidden by gayest of flowers. The seed does not 
germinate until hot weather, and should be sown 
late. This plant requires little care and can 
be transplanted in full flower. Average height, 
6 inches.

DOUBLE VARIETIES 
These flowers are so full and perfect as to 
resemble tiny roses. Toward the close of the 
season they will increase in size and beauty. As 
the full, double flowers do not produce seed, it 
must be saved from the semi-double flowers grow¬ 
ing with the full-doubles. The product of that 
seed will produce many single flowers. As these 
bloom earlier they can be pulled out like weeds. 
When the full-doubles appear cuttings can be 
made from them and the bed extended indefinitely 
with only full-double flowers. Our strains must 
not be confused with the ordinary, cheap seed 
usually sold.
