2326 Shumway’s Mammoth Exhibition 
Mixture of the World’s Finest Pansies 
There is a vast difference in Pansy Seed. I know of no 
other flower in which quality of the strain is of such vast 
importance as in Pansies. I have specialized on Pansies 
for many years and beliewe that this Mixture represents 
the largest flowered varieties and the finest array of 
colors (with varied markings) of any obtainable at the 
present time. Many of the blooms are most beautifully 
blotched. The flower is heavy, thick and velvety with a 
waxy appearance, and crinkled at the edges. Blooms 
abundantly on long graceful stems. Pkt., 40 cts.; 1/16 
0z., $1.25; VY oz, $2.00; % oz, $3.50; % 02, $6.75; 
1 oz., $13.00.
