A DESCRIPTIVE OUTLINE 
OF THE VARIETIES BRED BY AN I ^ COMPOSING 
THE HARROLD’S PEDIGREED STRAIN 
Line Of Giant Pansies 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED NOVELTIES: This mixture is 
made up from individual plant selections in our breeding department. It 
contains some of the finest specimens obtainable in the Pansy world today. 
Nearly every color and form that is most desirable is represented in this 
mixture. 
Recommended where the unusual is desired. 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED POT PANSIES: A short growing 
giant type, which, if grown properly in a cool, well ventilated house, will 
make fine individual specimen plants for pot or box setting. 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED CUT-FLOWER PANSIES: 
A fine giant sort which, grown under similar conditions to those above, 
produces many fine flowers on stems 6 to 11 inches long. Wide color range. 
HARROLD’S RUBY GIANTS: The finest selection of giant red 
Pansies we know of. Ranging from the red bronzes and orange scarlet, to 
brilliant deep mahogany. These are very desirable. 
HARROLD’S AZURE GIANTS: A brilliant blue companion to 
the above variety. Giant size and very early, producing quantities of large 
sized flowers on long stems. 
HARROLD’S GOLDEN GIANTS: A golden yellow companion 
to the above two varieties. Large flowers produced in profusion makes this 
sort desirable, and the distinctive dark center blotch adds much to its 
attraction. 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED GIANTS: Our finest and most 
popular mixed color variety. Super-giant in size, it produces 
flowers ranging from 2^/2 to 4^/4 inches in diameter as a rule. 
Robust compact plant habit, and long flower stems, added 
to this large size, makes this an almost universally useful sort. 
Color range is most complete with a fine compliment of novel¬ 
ties, and flower form and marking is most symetrical. It will 
pay you to compare this variety with those you’re now using. 
HARROLD’S ALL-AMERICAN BEDDING MIXTURE: 
This is a composite mixture of varieties we make up exclusively from seeds 
grown in our own gardens. Eighty percent are Harrold’s Pedigreed Strain 
varieties, while the other twenty percent is composed of seeds from specimen 
plants in our trial grounds; where tests of other principal varieties and 
strains are periodically grown for comparison. This mixture is unsurpassed 
among the standard mixtures for the variation of types and colors contained 
HARROLD’S IMPROVED SWISS: A Harrold bred strain of 
this popular variety that is outstanding in size and coloring, as well as being 
much earlier than any other strain of the Swiss family with which we have 
compared it to date. In spite of the many "Improved Swiss” and "Super- 
Swiss” strains obtainable, we predict that you will not appreciate this variety 
until you have given this strain a trial. Compact habit. 
HARROLD’S GREATER AMERICAN PERFECTION: 
A modest priced giant variety, introduced by us right after moving our 
growing operations to the west coast. Similar to the Harrold’s Pedigreed 
Giants in type, although not so highly developed. Highly recommended, 
however, where a small compromise in strain quality can be made to obtain 
a lower price on seeds. 
HARROLD’S OREGON MIRACLE MIXED: This is the 
lowest priced of the genuine Harrold bred varieties. With large sized flowers 
and its wide color range, it is a sound value. It may successfully be used as a 
competitor of any other sort at near its price range; being superior to most 
of the stock in this price range. Do not, however, make the mistake of 
economizing through the use of this variety in a market that more modern 
stock can be sold in.
