HARROLD’S 
New Cut fylowesi Pa+vUf, 
The Harrold’s Pedigreed Strain Line was the first line of Pansies 
to include a variety expressly bred for cut flower work. Harrold’s 
Pedigreed Cut-Flower Pansies as introduced in 1931 was then the only 
variety of this type and still is a sort that gives excellent results if 
conditions are to their liking. In introducing the Harrold’s Pedigreed 
Cut-Flower Pansies 1940 TALL SELECTION we are not discontinuing 
the original strain but rather this new introduction increases the scope 
of our line of varieties. 
OUR 1940 NOVELTY INTRODUCTION 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED CUT-FLOWER PANSIES 
1940 TALL SELECTION 
This strain is much taller growing than the original strain, produc¬ 
ing plants that are three to four feet high under good conditions. This 
of course has added much to the length of the flower stems with the 
production of 12 inch stems commonplace. Stems are quite stiff and 
bear the flowers very nicely. Flowers are somewhat larger in average 
size, although the texture is no better than it is with the original 
strain. Coloring has been extended somewhat and the color blend has 
been bred for suitability to the needs of the cut flower trade. For 
this type of work these are the latest and most valuable strain now 
available. 
This strain should be planted in June, July or August for winter 
flowering. Plants should be benched in the greenhouse after the weath¬ 
er starts to cool off in the fall. Set with 12 by 12 inch spacing and 
support same as for Carnations. A good crop of flowers should be 
produced from December well into the spring if the flowers are kept 
cut as they develope. 
PEDIGREED QUALITY SEEDS ONLY: Packets containing about 750- 
seeds at $2.00 each; 3 packets for $5.00; 10 packets for $15.00. 
Our Original Strain 
HARROLD’S PEDIGREED CUT-FLOWER PANSIES' 
This is the original cut flower type of Pansy as we introduced it in 
1931 with the subsequent breeding improvments that have been develop¬ 
ed in the strain through the years. We have had many fine reports on 
these and they have been most satisfactory with many of our growers. 
PEDIGREED QUALITY SEEDS ONLY: Packets containing about 
1000 seeds $1.25; 5 packets for $5.00. 
This mixture is strictly surplus from our breeding 
and experimental work. It is from exceptional specimen 
plants of outstanding standard type, or strictly novelties 
which have not been incorporated into varieties in com¬ 
mercial production. Being mostly of hybrid origin, and 
from a widely diversified type selection, it is impossible 
to describe the many types, forms, and colorings found 
in this mixture. Recommended for the grower who wishes 
stock of advanced and unusual types. 
PEDIGREED QUALITY SEEDS only are available 
in this lot. Price $2.00 per packet, about 750 seeds. Owing 
to limitation of supply these should be ordered early.
