CLARKE’S BLEND. A carefully considered, well balanced 
mixture, including both Swiss and Hybrid types, each 
separately grown by us, and so combined 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. This blend contains both the brilliance of the Swiss 
and the soft pastels and beautiful bronze tones of the 
Hybrid. 
Be sure to allow ample time for germination of either 
Clarke Blend or Hybrid Blend, for each of these mixtures 
is composed of several strains, which will vary a little, 
both in time required for germination, and development 
of seedlings. 
PLEASE NOTE: It is our experience that the stronger col- 
ors, such as yellow and purple, develop their seedlings 
faster than the more delicate pastel tones. Therefore, when 
transplanting, take both small and large seedlings. 
Any one of the above four varieties, pkt. $1.25; three pkts. 
$3.25; half pkt. 75c: three half pkts. $1.75. 
SEPARATE COLORS 
The blooms of the four separate colors listed below are 
always a little smaller than the blossoms of either the 
mixed or the Hybrid types, but the mass planting of these 
separate colors, in either beds or borders, produces a gar- 
den effect which can be accomplished in no other way. 
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, 
Wallflowers, Marigolds, yellow-bronze Chrysanthemums, 
or yellow-bronze Iris. 
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, blue Hyacinths, blue Iris, pink 
Zinnias, Delphinium. 
ULLSWATER. A deep ultramarine blue Swiss Pansy. 
Should be planted in acid soil to hold its true color. It is a 
stunning contrast when used with yellow flowered or pink 
bulbs. 
Any one of the above four separate colors, pkt. $1.00; 
three pkts. $2.50; half pkt. 50c: three half pkts. $1.25
