Buist’s 
Prize Giant 
Pansy 
Giant Pansies 
Annual or Biennial. 8 in. April-October. 
T HIS beautiful flower is too 
well known to need any dc' 
scription. The seed we offer has 
been saved from the most distinct 
and bestmamed varieties. The 
higher priced sorts produce the 
largest flowers. 
Pansies like a cold, moist situation. 
They thrive in a rich loamy soil con¬ 
taining leaf mould and cow manure, 
well-rotted or prepared in dry form. 
Sow the seed in well pulverized soil, 
covering the seed four times their size 
and firmly press the soil. When large 
enough transplant. Cultivate frequently. 
For Summer blooming, sow seed in¬ 
doors very early and transplant when 
2 inches high or sow in the open ground 
in April. For early Spring blooming, 
sow seed in August or September and 
transplant 4 to 5 inches apart into cold 
frames or they may be wintered over in 
the open ground with protection of hay 
or straw. In the early Spring, trans¬ 
plant to their flowering beds to stand 9 
inches apart. During dry weather, the 
bed should be watered daily.
