PANSIES 
HallaweWs Select Strains 
(July'May) 
Pansies thrive in a partially shaded location and in a loose 
soil, well enriched with decayed manure, which should be 
well dug into the soil. Seed should be sown in the fall for 
early spring blooming, and early in the year until May for 
flowers in the spring and summer. The seed may be sown in 
boxes and as soon as the plants are large enough to handle, 
transplant to stand 9 inches apart.
