NAMED VARIETIES 
From the multitude of varieties that are intro¬ 
duced each year by foreign and American growers 
we have selected eight that we believe are best 
adapted to general garden use. 
BERNA. A Swiss Giant with large, well-formed flowers of fine 
texture in a striking velvety violet-blue, with dark centers. 
CORONATION GOLD. This great Pansy won the coveted 
Award of Merit in the 1939 All-America Seed Selections. 
It is a shapely bloom, irregularly round, with the edges of 
the petals daintily crinkled. Stems of good length and a 
spicy fragrance make it desirable for cutting. Vigorous, 
healthy plants hold the flowers erect. 
GIANT LAVENDER. Pleasing shade of lavender with slight 
variation. Flowers of fine texture borne well above the foliage 
on strong, stiff stems. 
GIANT RED. Same type as preceding, in shades of red. 
MAPLE LEAF, VIOLET JEWEL. Maple Leaf type with 
the same heavy foliage and large flowers. Rich purple. 
MRS. A. H. SCOTT. Few Pansies are more lovely than this 
selection from the Baby type. It rarely exceeds 4 inches in 
height, and having the compact, bushy growth of the bed¬ 
ding Violas is valuable for both border and rockery. Deep 
purple-violet flowers shade off in the top petals to a white 
edge suggesting a miniature Lord Beaconsfield. 
SHAKESPEARE’S PANSIES. Simple, sweet little Pansies 
suitable for any location. Fine free-flowering plants and 
small, dainty flowers in shades of purple, white, yellow, 
and blue. An old-fashioned flower recently rediscovered. 
SUPER MAPLE LEAF GIANTS. A distinct variety with 
thick foliage and flowers of heavy substance, 4 to 5 inches 
across. Stems are long enough to make it desirable for cut- 
flower purposes. A mixture of many colors and color com¬ 
binations. 
Prices of Novelties: 75 cts. for 25, $2.00 per 100

FURNISHED IN SEPARATE COLORS 
Frequently the gardener desires to use Pansy 
Plants to secure an immediate color scheme. They 
are especially desirable for edging hardy borders, for 
setting around a bed of tulips, for use in the rock- 
garden, or for outlining a cemetery lot or an indi¬ 
vidual grave. Pansies may be used in a multitude of 
ways, and these standard varieties will give you an 
opportunity to carry out many garden ideas. All of 
the plants are compact growers, yet the stems are not 
so short as to render the blooms useless for cutting. 
While the flowers are not quite so large as those of 
the mixed types, they will give a wonderful effect. 
Alpenglow. Cardinal shades, with dark blotches. 
Blue Boy. Clear and pure silvery lilac. A bed of this variety 
gives an effect of striking beauty. 
Bronze. Peculiar shades in bronze. 
Giant White. Pure white flowers somewhat larger than 
Snow Queen. 
Golden Yellow. Rich yellow with large brown eye. 
King of the Blacks. The nearest to black in Pansies. 
Lake of Thun. True splendid ultramarine-blue. The most 
beautiful of all blue Pansies. An exact duplicate of the 
Emperor William with much larger flowers. Excellent when 
used with Yellow Master. 
Lord Beaconsfield. Deep purple-violet shading off in the 
top petals to a white line. Fine for graves. 
Royal. Deep purple; very pretty. 
Yellow Master. A pure golden yellow, like Golden Queen, 
but the flowers are somewhat larger and of better form.
