SAMPLES SENT ON REQUEST: We will be glad to 
send samples if you would like to see our seed before 
ordering. Our samples are big so you can easily see 
the quality of Bowman’s Better Seeds. We guaran- 
tee our seeds fully equal to the samples. 
TESTED SEED: On some lots below the purity and 
germination is given for your information. First fig- 
ure is purity and second figure after the symbol (/) 
is germination. Thus 99/90 means 99% pure and 
90% germination. All our seed is carefully tested 
for purity and germination by trained seed analysts, 
and tagged before shipment.
