“PANSY VIOLETS” 
New Large-Flowering Hybrids. 
(Viola cornuta (yandiflora hybrida.) 
This new and improved strain produces beautiful pansy-like 
blossoms, 2 to inches across, of great substance and of most 
brilliant colors, including white, lemon, orange, claret, crimson, 
maroon, lavender, purple, silver-gray, rose, black, blue, etc.; also 
fancy varieties tinted, striped, blotched, feathered, picotee-edged, 
etc. The plants are hardy, of vigorous growth, forming deep¬ 
rooting, compact, tufted clumps. Planted in masses or lines they 
form perfect mats covered with myriads of flowers from spring 
until cold weather. They are more perennial in character than 
pansies, throwing out new roots annually, adapting them to per¬ 
manent beds, edgings, etc. The flowers are borne on long stems 
which shoot up like those of the violet directly from the roots, 
which accounts for their continuous bloom for nine months in the 
year. Many of them are as highly scented as the sweetest violet.

“Tour 'Pansy-Violets' afford us extreme satisfaction; such bearers, 
such long stems and such a variety of colors! We also grow your 
large Butterfly Pansies, and while they are grand , yet for 'real comfort' 
we think we must have some of the Sweet 'Pansy-Violets.' The 
fragrance from a bunch of them perfumes the room.”

VISCARIA, PURITY. 
A new pure white large-flowering variety of the annual Viscaria, 
so effective in gardens. The plants, 12 to 15 inches high, are con¬ 
tinuously covered with these snow-white flowers, 1£ inches across— 
throughout the summer. Very useful for cutting. Pkt. 15c. 
WALL FLOWER. 
T HESE old European favorites are not as much grown and appreciated in this country 
as they deserve, due, no doubt, to the fact that they are scarcely hardy in very cold 
locations, but in sheltered locations with protection they winter safely in Northern 
States, though, perhaps, it is better to sow the seed annually in spring, and winter the 
young plants over in the cold frame. They are worth the trouble, making nice bushy 
plants, 1* feet high, bearing in the spring long spikes of most deliciously fragrant flowers of 
various colors, crimson, purple, yellow, apricot, mahogany, pink, etc.
