Bill Burrell and Our Texas Giant Strain of Watermelon. Don't be fooled about size of the 
melons. Bill is just so big that they hardly look like Giants 
Florida Giant (Cannonball) 9 days. A vigorous very 
productive melon popular 
throughout the South for long distance shipping. Fruits very dark 
green, large, nearly round; flesh firm, red and of excellent quality, 
although slightly coarser than Dixie Queen. 
Our seed of this has given such satisfaction that we have been 
unable to grow enough to supply the demand. This is the Texas 
Giant strain. 
Our Texas Giant strain of Florida Giant is one you cannot afford 
to pass up. If you use this variety from any other source, whether 
satisfied or not, plant a portion of your crop to our seed of this; 
you may like it well enough to become a Texas Giant fan, thou- 
sands have.
