BURPEE’S GIANT PANSIES 
Pansies always have been a great specialty with us and we are 
justly proud of our strains. Their wide range of colors, markings 
and forms, their easy culture, have made Burpee pansies universally 
popular. Pansies succeed best in fairly rich, well-drained soil in a 
sunny position, and produce their finest flowers in the cool, early 
days of spring. Keep flowers picked dur- 
ing the summer, plants pinched back, 
and you will get a nice lot of flowers 
again in the fall. Seeds may be sown out- 
doors when soil has become warm; for 
earlier blooms, start seed indoors or ina 
warm hotbed six to eight weeks before 
your usual outdoor planting time.

easy for you, we have indicated with a symbol the principal purposes of 
different flowers. See explanation at left. There are annual flowers for
