MichelPs Pansies are the world^s finest 
Michell's Giant Pansies 
Strictly considered, this is a biennial, but the fact that it flowers the first season from seed recommends it as an annual. There 
are actually three seasons in which Pansies can be planted: If started in the house from February until April, Pansies will begin to 
bloom from July on; sown outdoors in May, beautiful flowers are produced in the fall; sown in frames during July and August, and 
transplanted later, they give us the main crop of flowers the following spring. 
Shakespeare’s Pansies 
Shakespeare's Pansies 
These are the simple, quaint, little Pansies of Shakespeare’s time, 
and are suitable for any location in the garden. They can be very 
easily grown wherever Pansies are successful and are most ideal for 
the old-fashioned garden, the rock-garden, or that shady location in 
the Iwrder. The habit of growth is similar to Violas, and they flower 
continually throughout the season. The flowers range through 
purples, yellows, blues, and whites, and are delightfully fragrant.
