GIANT PANSY PLANTS 
Growing in flats of soil 
Here’s a new service—plants of our Giant- 
flowered Pansies grown one dozen to a soil 
flat, all ready to set out in your garden. Un- 
like the early bedding Pansies sold in baskets 
which have a relatively short season of bloom, 
these will continue to produce their huge 
blooms, if planted in full sun or half shade, 
right up to late fall and early winter. 
Super Swiss Giants, Mixed. This by far 
surpasses in quality and range of color any 
other Giant Pansy mixture. The plants are 
more compact and most of the flowers are 
beautifully frilled. They are of perfect form, 
with thick, velvety, rounded petals in a color- 
range beyond belief—bronze, silver, gold, cop- 
per-wine-red, pink, salmon, silver-grey, brown, 
Indian red, steel-blue, dark blue and yellow. 
$1.75 per flat of 12 plants. 3 flats for $4.95.
