Pansies and Forget-me-nots 
For early spring display, the two most popular flowers grown from seed are Pansies and Forget-me- 
nots. These are often referred to as ‘‘cool-weather plants’’ because they produce their largest and 
most colorful blooms during the cooler seasons of the year —particularly in the early spring. Sow seeds 
in July or August, early enough so that the seedlings, transplanted in the fall, will reach an almost 
ready-to-bloom stage before winter sets in. Carry the plants over winter in frames or outdoors, 
depending on the locality in which you live. 



Burpee’s Giant Pansies 
Pansies always have been a great specialty with us and we 
are justly proud of the quality and trueness to type of our 
strains. Pansies succeed best in rich, well-drained soil in a 
sunny position. Keep flowers picked during the summer, 
plants pinched back, and you will get a nice lot of flowers 
again in the fall. For full cultural directions, ask for a
