EXHIBITION PANSIES 
Pansies have long been a very popu- 
lar favorite and they make delightful 
beds. The finest Pansies are shy-seed- 
ers as a rule, and that accounts for the 
difference in prices. Sow seed in boxes 
or beds and transplant to cool locations 
for long blooming period. 
Roggli Swiss Giants. Greatest Pansies 
yet. Gigantic size, perfectly round, 
fine substance. Sensation wher- 
ever shown.

blue dark blotches.

canary-yellow with lower petals

ers as much as 3 in. across, with 
slightly ruffled edges. This is the 
best pure yellow pansy. 
Engelmann’s Giant. A special strain 
selected and developed by an Eng- 
lish grower. The plants are dwarf 
and compact and the huge flowers, 
in many dark and light tones, ap- 
pear early. 
PORTULACA (Rose Moss). For bril- 
liant coloring nothing can excel a bed 
of Portulaca, with its silky flowers 
glistening in the sunlight. It is very 
easily grown and no bedding plant 
equals the Portulaca, for places ex- 
posed to the hot sun of midsummer.

plants.

1 foot apart.

the old favorite, with plants of a

particularly valuable for bedding 
or planting in lines.

proved color; deep royal blue. Habit

bushy growers, with attractive, 
double, rosette-like flowers borne on

loam, too. Prized for the very large 
Cornflower or Sweet Sultan-like flow- 
ers of blue and white, 4-5 in. across.

Bride). 3 ft. Attractive old-fashioned 
flower, producing a great profusion of 
beautiful flowers over a long season. 
The double annual flowers are pin- 
cushion shaped, 2-3 in. across. The 
richly colored, fragrant blossoms on 
long stems make desirable beds, 
borders and cut-flowers. Sow seed as 
soon as ground can be worked, or 
earlier indoors to transplant. 
lue Moon (Imperial Giants). The 
flower is fully double, extremely 
large and deep, 2%4 inches across 
and 2 to 2%4 inches deep, about 
the shape of an old-fashioned bee- 
hive. The color is a rich deep 
lavender blue, a shade which main- 
tains its effectiveness indoors or 
out. The plant type is just as great 
an improvement over the old as the 
flower itself. Plants are extremely 
upright growing, tall, 42 to 48 
inches in height as grown on our 
ranches and the long, heavy yet 
wiry stems hold the flowers proudly 
erect, completely eliminating the 
weak necks which are a fault of 
older types.

Loveliness. Varying tones of soft, 
delicate salmon-rose.

salmon.
