Giant-Flowered Pansies 

TREAT AS ANNUALS OR BIENNIALS 
This popular plant needs no description. Good results may be obtained from sowing 
seed in April or again in July and August in a light, cool, but well-n oistened soil, enriched 
with a slight amount of barnyard manure or fine-ground bone. Sow seed in drills, covering 
them five times their diameter, and firm the soil. Seed will germinate in about two weeks 
and should not be allowed to dry out. When plants are large enough to handle, transplant 
to a distance of 1 foot apart. Protected in winter under glass, summer-sown plants are put 
out in bloom in April; carried over in the open they bloom a month later.
