PANSY SEED ‘ 
The mild climate and fertile soil of the Willamette 
Valley, distinguish it as the only location in the entire 
United States, which has growing conditions iden: 
tical with those of England and of the seed producing 
portions of Cont!nental Europe. The seed here offered, 
is grown in this valley, and is based on the finest 
foreign and domestic strains. The planting is care- 
fully and thoroughly ‘‘rogued” and the crop is given 
personal attention throughout the season. The result 
is vigorous seed which produces early blooms, hav- 
ing a wide color range, excellent texture, and largest 
size. Full cultural directions are sent with each order.
