FINER PANSY SEED 
GIANT SWISS. This famous Swiss type of pansy is round 
in form and open faced, with a definite blotch. Our re- 
selected strain has an unusually wide variation of clear 
brilliant colors, including pink and rose shades not usually 
found in this type. Its range also includes yellow, orange, 
henna, flame, carmine, fuchsia and blue. The blossoms are 
from 3 to 4 inches in diameter, under proper culture, and the 
plants are very compact. 
JUMBO. This hybrid pansy contains many rayed centers 
and is often two-toned and ruffled. Early blooming, with 
exceptionally large blossoms, exquisite pastels and strik- 
ing bronze tones, unbelievably beautiful yellows, purples, 
maroons, many ruffled. A blossom measuring 4 inches or 
more, is not unusual for this variety. 
HYBRID BLEND. A combination of several outstanding 
hybrids, each separately grown by us. The color range 
includes gorgeous shades of velvety red, delicate pastel 
tones, rich purples, giant yellows, bronze-golds and cop- 
pers, with many variations of these shades. This mixture 
is made up for those who are interested in exceptionally 
large blossoms and unusual shades of color. 
CLARKE'’S BLEND. A carefully considered, well balanced 
mixture of the choicest strains, including both Swiss and 
Hybrid types, each grown by us separately, and so com- 
bined as to afford both early and late flowers of fine texture. 
with a much wider variety of shades than can be found in 
any one strain. The blooms are unusually large and the 
plants are very sturdy. This is a high class mixture of the 
best seed we grow and is intended to include the brilliance 
of the Swiss type and the soft pastels and beautiful bronze 
tones of the hybrid. 
CORONATION GOLD is the largest and best pure yellow 
Swiss Pansy and is definitely fragrant. It is a charming 
ground cover for blue Scillas or Hyacinths; for red or 
white Tulips; or for the many red or copper-toned Azaleas. 
IMPROVED FIREBEACON. This is a coppery red Swiss 
pansy—the red of the wallflower rather than a purple red— 
and often has a definite touch of orange. It is very rich, 
and at the same time a most unique and striking shade. 
Is very effective when planted with yellow flowered bulbs 
or shrubs. 
MONT BLANC. Floriferous, with large early blossoms. It 
is the finest, largest, pure white pansy. A most pleasing 
combination with magenta or red Azaleas, pink or red 
Tulips, or yellow Daffodils. 
ULLSWATER (Thunersee). A deep ultramarine blue Swiss 
pansy. It is a stunning contrast, used with yellow flowered 
bulbs or shrubs.
