OUR 1937 NOVELTY 
HARROLD’S 
PedUyveed SwlH Qia^iti 
This is our principle 1937 Novelty which will be of interest to all Pansy 
growers, commercial as well as fanciers. As its name implies the stock is 
of the fancy type and has been bred from "Swiss” parents. 
The chief drawback of the "Swiss” strains in the past has been the late 
flowering habits and a weakness of plant habit. These we believe we have 
substantially improved even over our old and tried standby in this class— 
our Harrold’s Improved Swiss offered on page 15. 
Flower color range is also somewhat advanced through additions of 
several exclusive new ones as well as widening the color range in the better 
known shades, has resulted in a more attractive coloring and the five 
blotched center is more prevalent than in most stock. Plant habit is com¬ 
pact and less inclined to leg out while the blooming period with us is but 
a few days later than our Harrold’s Pedigreed Giants which are noted for 
their early flowering habits. Brightened colors has also added to the value 
of this sort as a subject for mass bedding, a feature of many "Swiss” strains 
which is entirely lacking because of dead and dark colors. 
In size the flowers excell anything we have seen in this class to date and 
substance is somewhat improved although they are still not as heavy in 
substance as some of the Exhibition types. Size, of course, like with all 
Pansies, is dependent upon environment and culture. With us this has been 
excellent, ranging up to better than 4^/2 inches.
