Pansies In
Bloom, Not
Unusual Here
We read in one of our exchanges
that a woman at Lancaster has a
pansy plant in bloom in the yard
at her home, 328 Fairview avenue.
To the writer this is nothing
out of the ordinary. He has had
a number of pansy stalks, a pale
blue, from which he has taken
flowers every month since last
Summer.
They are growing in a natural
rock garden facing the South and
although covered with snow to-
day, will display flowers within a
few days after the snow melts.
Two years ago we picked pansies
from these stalks every month
during the entire winter. On
Christmas of that year there were
at least a dozen blooms removed.
Seemingly the pansy is quite
hardy.
