70. SEED CATALOGUE AND GARDEN GUIDE.

PANSIES. These little beauties need no extended description, as it would be hard to find even a child in the land whose heart has not been gladdened by their bright faces. Pansies are a specialty with us, and we use the greatest care in growing, selecting and importing the best strains of these universal favorites. Pansies like a moist, rather shady location and rich soil. Should be watered freely in dry weather. Seed started in February or March will produce early spring flowers. Circular giving full directions for growing pansies will be sent free if requested. Packets contain 100 to 250 seeds. NEW RAINBOW PANSIES.--The best novelty in Pansies and the most charming variety ever sent out.

Packet of 100 seeds 25c. THE PEACOCK.--This fine new variety has been named the Peacock because the upper petals of the flower most nearly resemble, in color, the peculiar shade seen only in the feather of the peacock, a beautiful ultra-marine blue. The petals are edged with a thin white line, within which it is a purplish crimson, passing into a rich central blotch of deep blue, shading to black. Pkt. 10c. FIRE KING.--This novelty comes almost absolutely true, scarcely a plant bearing a flower at variance from the type, which is very distinct and striking. The three lower petals each have a large blotch of deep brown-red or magenta margined with yellow, while the upper petals are of a bright red, of a really fiery shade, warranting the name of Fire King. Pkt. 10c. CASSIER' GIANT ODIER.--The flowers, of immense size, are of the popular Odier type, being all three spotted or five-spotted on back-grounds of very rich colors.

Flowers are much larger than the violet, more like pansies, but with the delicious fragrance of the former. Range of color runs through white, buff, canary and azure-blue, and the coloring of each is exceedingly delicate and charming. Pkt. 15c. INTERNATIONAL MIXED.--In almost every country in the world there are pansy specialists, notably those of Scotland, Belgium, France, Germany and Switzerland. Each have their idea of perfection. This mixture consists of a grand assortment from the world's leading growers.
