and abundant flowering with rather 
sparse foliage.

partially shaded locations in loose rich 
soil. Frequent feeding induces giant 
blooms and good stems. Old flowers 
should be cut off. 
Pansy “Best-by-Test” Strain—Several years 
ago we carried on a very thorough test 
of pansy seed which we acquired from 
various pansy growers and selected for 
listing a strain that seemed to us to be 
the best. Each year since we have con- 
tinued these tests. In addition to this 
we visited many seed farms where we 
saw various strains growing. As a result 
we again offer our first choice as our 
“Best-by-Test” Pansy strain. The blooms 
are very large and of fine substance, and 
are produced in great abundance on 
plants that make very uniform growth. 
The colors are especially clear and rich 
and there is a well-balanced color range.
