 riety. Our stock is true, and will give greatest satisfaction

Caulifloi9er, 



Blumenkohl. 



1 oz., 1500-2000 plants. 



The Culture of Cauliflower is similar to Caboage. It 

 delights in a rich, moist soil, and in dry seasons should 

 be abundantly watered, especially when heading, sow 

 seed in hot-bed in January or February, and transplant 

 the plants, two or three inches apart, in boxes or in open 

 ground, which in this latitude is usually done from the 

 15th of March to the 10th of April. Set the plants two 

 feet by fifteen inches apart. If properly hardened off 

 they are seldom injured by planting out too early. When 

 heading, tie the outside leaves loosely over the head to 

 protect it from the sun. 



Early Snowball. — The best variety on the market. If planted 

 March 1 large heads will be produced early in .Tune, and scarcely a sin- 

 gle head will fail to form. Its compact habit renders it a very profit- 

 able variety to force under glass, and it does well for late planting. Our 

 stock cannot be excelled in quality. Pkg., 25c. and SOc ; oz., $1.75.
