SPECIAL OFFERINGS 
PASTEL HYBRIDS. These shades are apart from all others, 
almost ethereal in their dainty delicacy, rare color, and 
markings resembling butterflies. Many are ruffled, some 
almost like double petunias. While the colors are not fixed, 
pastel shades predominate. 150 seeds $1.00; ¥2 pkt. $2.00. 
BLUMLISALP (‘Flower of the Alps”). A new Swiss Pansy 
with the rosy tints of sunrise in the Alps, from palest pink to 
carmine rose. Throughout the season — Spring, Summer, 
Fall—visitors were especially interested in our planting of 
this variety. Plant with any white, blue or pink bulbs; white 
or blue Iris; white, cream or pink Azaleas; Asters; white or 
cream Zinnias or Petunias. Y2 pkt. 75c; pkt. $1.25. 
PAY DIRT. We consider this the finest yellow pansy on 
the market. It has heavy texture, delicate dark penciling, 
is ruffled and fragrant. One of the earliest and when well 
grown will produce flowers from 4 to 5inches. 2 pkt. $1.00. 
MOON MOTH. A new hybrid, creamy white, with the fine 
characteristics of Pay Dirt. Early, large, sturdy, slightly 
ruffled blossoms having dark blue penciling. While this 
pansy is too recent to be definitely established, it shows 
promise of supplanting other white types.. Supply very 
limited. 150 seeds $1.00. 
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 purpie 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, white Swiss 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 or pink flowered 
bulbs. 
Any one of the above four separate colors, pkt. $1.00; 
four pkts. $3.50; half pkt. 50c: four half pkts. $1.75. 
Complete PLANTING DIRECTIONS are enclosed with 
each seed order.

MIXED 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 always 
found in this type. Its range also includes yellow, orange, 
henna, flame, carmine, fuchsia and blue. Under proper 
culture, the blossoms are from 3 to 4 inches in diameter, 
and the plants are very compact. 
JUMBO. This earliest and largest of the hybrid pansies, 
has many rayed centers and is often two-toned and ruf- 
fled. It contains exquisite lavender and orchid pastels, 
striking bronze-gold tones and unbelievably beautiful yel- 
lows, purples and maroons. In our plantings, blooms mea- 
suring 4 inches and over are often found. 
HYBRID BLEND. In addition to the interesting colors of the 
Jumbo, this mixture includes gorgeous shades of velvety 
red, copper, and delicate pastel tones in pink, peach, apri- 
cot and rose. It is made up for those who are interested in 
exceptionally large blossoms and the unusual in color. 
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 the brilliance of the Swiss and 
the pastels and beautiful bronze tones of the hybrids. 
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 de- 
velopment of seedlings. 
It is our experience that the stronger colors, such as yellow and purple, 
develop their seedlings faster than the more delicate pastel tones. There- 
fore, when transplanting, take both small and large seedlings. 
Any one of the above four varieties, pkt. $1.75; four pkts. 
$6.00; half pkt. $1.00; four half pkts. $3.50.

MASS PLANTING OF PANSIES 
To achieve the most effective plantings, either as ground cover, or in 
beds, put the lighter shades in a large group in the background, and 
accent with smaller, irregular groups of darker colors in the foreground. 
For the border, use rows of lighter shades, accented by a row or rows 
of darker colors in front.
