R  285.715.5   Brand names.
  Rule 5.  (1)  Brand  names  and  terms  taken  from  trademarks  may  be
associated with the kind and variety or mixtures of kinds or varieties  or
blends of varieties of seed as an indication of source; however, the names
and terms shall be clearly indicated as being other than part of the  name
of the kind and variety, mixture, or blend. Brand names shall not be  used
in place of  variety  names  or  in  any  manner  in  which  they  may  be
interpreted as being a variety name.
  (2) The brand name may incorporate  the  name  of  the  variety  in  the
complete brand name or be shown separately on the label. When the  variety
name is shown as being separate from the  brand  name,  the  variety  name
shall be adequately identified by using the term  "Variety"  preceding  or
following the variety designation.

  History:  1990 AACS.


R  285.715.6   Blend labeling.
  Rule 6. Seed that consists of 2 or more varieties of the same kind shall
be designated as a blend. The word "blend" shall be shown as a part of the
name of the blend. Blends or mixtures may be assigned brand names but  not
variety names. The labeling and advertisements of  varietal  blends  shall
not create the impression that the seed is a single variety. For  example,
the soybean blend that consists of 2 varieties could not be named  "golden
pod soybeans" because "golden pod" could be mistaken for a  variety  name.
The  same  soybean  blend  could  be  labeled  and   represented   in   an
advertisement as "gold pod brand soybean blend." If the variety  names  of
the components making up the blend are shown on the label, the percentage,
by weight,  of  each  named  variety  shall  be  shown  in  the  order  of
predominance.

R  285.715.10   Flower seeds;  labeling  kind  and  variety  or  type  and
  performance characteristics.
  Rule 10. (1) The requirements of section 5 of Act No. 329 of the  Public
Acts of 1965, as amended, being S286.705 of the  Michigan  Compiled  Laws,
which specify that flower seeds shall be labeled with the name of the kind
and variety or a statement of  type  and  performance  characteristics  as
prescribed in these rules shall be met as follows:
  (a) For seeds of plants grown primarily for their blooms, the  following
provisions apply:
  (i) If the seeds are of a single named variety,  the  kind  and  variety
shall be stated, for example, "Marigold, Butterball."
  (ii) If the seeds are of a single type and color for which there  is  no
specific variety name, the type of plant, if significant, and the type and
color of bloom shall be indicated, for  example,  "Scabiosa,  Tall,  Large
Flowered, Double, Pink."
  (iii) If the seeds consist of an assortment  or  mixture  of  colors  or
varieties of a  single  kind,  the  kind  name,  the  type  of  plant,  if
significant, and the type  or  types  of  bloom  shall  be  indicated.  In
addition, it shall  be  clearly  indicated  that  the  seed  is  mixed  or
assorted. An  example  of  labeling  such  a  mixture  or  assortment  is,
"Marigold, Dwarf Double French, Mixed Colors."
  (b) If the seeds consist of an assortment or mixture of kinds  or  kinds
and varieties, it shall be clearly indicated that the seed is assorted  or
mixed and  the  specific  use  of  the  assortment  or  mixture  shall  be
indicated, for example, "Cut Flower Mixture," or  "Rock  Garden  Mixture."
Such statements as "General Purpose Mixture" or "Wonder  Mixture"  or  any
other statement which fails to indicate the specific use of the seed shall
not  be  considered  as  meeting  the  requirements  of  this   provision.
Containers that have more than 3 grams of seed shall list the kind or kind
and variety names of each component that is more than 5.0%  of  the  total
content by weight in the order of its  predominance  and  shall  list  the
percentage by weight of each component. Components of 5.0% or  less  shall
be listed, but need not be in order of predominance. A single  percentage,
by weight, shall be given for these  components.  If  no  component  of  a
mixture is more than 5% of the total content, the statement "No  component
in excess of 5%" may be used. Containers that have 3 grams of seed or less
shall list the components without giving the percentage  by  weight.  Such
listing need not be in order of predominance.
  (2) The kinds of flower seeds listed in table  2  are  those  for  which
standard testing procedures have been prescribed and which  are  therefore
required to  be  labeled  in  accordance  with  the  germination  labeling
provisions of section 5 of Act No. 329 of the  Public  Acts  of  1965,  as
amended, being S286.705 of the Michigan Compiled Laws.

  				TABLE 2
  		FLOWER SEED GERMINATION STANDARDS

The percentage listed opposite each kind of flower seed is the germination
standard for that kind. For the kinds of seed marked with an asterisk, the
percentage is the total of percentage germination and percentage  hard  or
dormant seed.
