For summer use, sow at intervals of 2 or 3 weeks from April to August, and 
for winter crops, sow in September, covering it, in exposed places, with straw, 
to protect it from severe frost.

LONG SEASON “TRIUMPH.” 
A remarkably hardy Spinach yielding an abundance of large, thick, dark 
green crumpled leaves, which retain their crispness much longer than 
any other variety and slow to run to seed. With this new sort, Spinach 
may be grown continuously throughout the entire season. It is not 
only hardier and more lasting than any of the large leaved sorts, but it 
possesses the further merit of being a profuse yielder. Pkt. 5c; oz. 10c;
