A middle-sized, dwarf, flat-headed variety ; Early Flat 



Green Curled 

 color deep green ; quality tender and good. Savoy. 



The plants should be set fifteen or eighteen 

 inches asunder. 



Similar to the Golden Savoy, and, like it, an Early Long ,

 early sort. It has, however, a longer head, voy. 



and does not heart so firmly. In flavor and texture, as well 

 as in its peculiar color, there is little difference between the 

 varieties. 



Cultivate in rows eighteen inches apart, and fifteen or 

 eighteen inches apart in the rows. 



A dwarfish, early sort. Head small, round, Early Ulm

somewhat rigid, of a fine deep green, with nu- SAVOY - Mclnt - 

 merous prominent blister-like elevations. The loose leaves 

 are remarkably few in number ; nearly all of the leaves of 

 the plant contributing to the formation of the head. 



It very quickly forms a heart, which, though not of large 

 size, is of excellent quality. It is, however, too small a sort 

 for market purposes, but for private gardens would, no 

 doubt, be an acquisition. In the London Horticultural Soci- 

 ety's garden, it proved the earliest variety in cultivation. 



Being one of the smallest of the Savoys, it requires but a 

 small space for its cultivation. If fifteen inches between the 

 rows, and about the same distance in the rows, be allowed, 

 the plants will have ample room for their full development. 



This curious and useful variety has been in Feather-

 existence for several years, and is said to be a Mclnt. 



cross between the Savoy and the Brussels Sprouts. It is 

 what may be called a sprouting Savoy ; producing numerous 

 shoots, or sprouts, along the stem.
