PANSIES
Truly speaking, a perennial, but an annual in California. To obtain the best results the seed should
be sown in August, September, or early part of October. Sow the seed in boxes of fine, rich soil mixed
with plenty of leaf-mould and sand, cover the seed
lightly and keep in a frame, lath house, or outside
in some sheltered and partially shaded place. When
the plants are large enough to handle, transplant to
beds of rich, well prepared soil, and cover the surface with a layer of well rotted, sifted manure.
Pansies prefer a rather heavy soil with plenty of
well rotted manure; this is very essential. Indeed,
it is almost impossible to use too much manure on
pansies and the richer the soil the larger and more
perfect will be the flowers. Later sowings may be
made up to the beginning of February, but they
wili not do as -well as those sown early in the fall
and the blooming period -will be.much shorter.
