HARROLD’S 
PEDIGREED SWISS GIANTS 
We introduced this Harrold bred strain in 1937 and as we pre- 
dicted upon introduction, it has proven to be a most popular sort. It 
is one of the finest of Pansies in the Fancy type of stock available 
today. It is quite an improvement over the standard ‘‘Swiss’’ types 
and is even more perfected than our own Harrold’s Improved Swiss 
which has maintained its popularity for many years. This sort is 
still earlier flowering than the last mentioned kind and is considerably 
improved in flower size, form and plant habit. 
The color range has seen the continued improvement common to 
Harrold bred seeds and many new and distinct colors and markings 
have been developed in this variety. In the Fancy type of Pansies we 
do not believe that there is any better stock available at this time. 
Nor, do we know of anything better that is likely to become available 
soon. Plant habit is somewhat more compact than that of the Exhib- 
ition types, however, the flowers are born on stems of adequate length 
for cutting if culture is reasonably good—while with favorable cul- 
ture, seven inch stems can be produced. 

The flower size excells anything we have seen in this class to 
date, with culture in our own gardens producing many flowers over 
four inches in diameter. In fact, flowers that will exceed four and a 
half inches have been produced by this strain. This variety has a 
large flower size bred into it, giving the basis for fine results when 
culture is to its liking.
