Michell’s Giant Pansies 
The following list comprises the best of the new European creations 
and the popular American varieties. We feel sure that these will please 
the most discriminating gardener. 
MICHELL’S NEW GIANT CLIMBING 
This strain is the result of careful selection of several leading varieties 
of winter-flowering Pansies, and we believe our stock to be the finest of 
its type. Its plants grow to a height of 3 feet and produce immense 
blooms on stems from 16 to 18 inches long. The colors are a pleasing 
blend of light and dark shades. This Pansy has very free-flowering 
qualities, making the strain ideal for winter blooming, when the flowers 
will command a high price. We offer strictly new-crop seed. Trade pkt. 
(200 seeds) $1.50; $4.00 for 3 trade pkts. 
NEW GIANT PANSY, MICHELL’S SPRINGTIME 
We are pleased to offer this fine new early-flowering Giant Pansy 
whose blooms measure 3J^ to 4 inches across, and come in a superior 
mixture of light colors so popular in the spring garden. The plants are 
of very dwarf habit. An excellent type for early sales in boxes or baskets.

MAPLE-LEAF GIANTS 
A new variety producing giant flowers measuring 4 to 6 inches across,
