PANSY 
Pansies thrive best in a moist, shady location and in rich, loamy soil. Seed should be sown in the autumn for early spring blossoms, 
or can be sown early in the year for good flowers late in the spring. The plants must be transplanted twice in order to get the largest 
flowers—once from the seed-box to a chosen bed, and again to the open garden. This is important if large-sized Pansies are desired. 
Use manure liberally. The blossoms are usually larger in the spring and again in the fall, but are small during the hot months.
