Field of Early Ziong' Standing Savoy for Seed 



Early Long Standing Savoy l'^ ^^^'^ ^^^^- 



^ ly as early as 



Reselected Savoy but has the very valuable advantage of 

 standing: in perfect condition, without bolting to seed, 10 

 to 14 days longer. This feature is worth thousands of 

 dollars to spinach growers, for with this variety it is 

 possible to market the crop when it is convenient and 

 advantageous for the grower to do so. Many severe losses 

 have been Incurred because cutters were not available, 

 weather conditions unfavorable, or prices were too low, 

 but Early Long Standing will wait for cutters, for 

 weather, and for prices.

Dear Sirs: 



We made two summer plantings of 

 your Long Standing Savoy Spinach this 

 year. One came in the end of June and 

 the other the end of August . Both 

 times the spinach withstood excessive 

 heat and humidity and stayed green 

 longer under these conditions. 



Both the buyers and other growers 

 noted the largeness of the individual 

 plants and large crumpled leaves 

 stating that it resembled Adirondack 

 spinach. 



Very truly yours, 

 H. Lindner & Sons,

(44-46 days) A leading canning 

 variety. Very vigorous, large spread- 

 ing plants with broad thick heavy leaves. Very produc- 

 tive and extremely slow in bolting to seed. 



Special Summer Savoy 



(50 days) Stands 

 warm weather with- 

 out bolting to seed better than any other Savoy leaved 

 type. A great improvement even on Bloomsdale Long 

 Standing. Very dark green and heavily crumpled leaves. 

 Very slow grower and should be sown so as to mature 

 during warm weather. 



New Zealand 



(70 days) (TETRAGONIA EX- 

 PANSA) Not related to regular 

 spinaches but forming larger spreading plants producing 

 fleshy brittle tips and leaves which are used as spinach. 

 Of delightful flavor and practically ever-bearing.
