R. & J. FARQUHAR & CO., BOSTON. VEGETABLE SEEDS. 



CAULIFLOWER 



CoUflor. Blumen Kohl. 



Cauliflower succeeds well in 

 any soil where Cabbages will 

 grow. It delights in a rich soil 

 and abundance of water. By 

 sowing the early varieties in a 

 hot-bed in February or March, 

 fine heads can be obtained in 

 May or June. For a later sup- 

 ply, sow seed in a prepared bed 

 in May, choosing a cool, moist 

 place. When large enough, 

 transplant, making the rows 

 about 2h feet apart and 18 

 inches between the plant_s. 

 Transplanting should be done in 

 moist weather. One ounce of 

 seed produces about 3,000 plants. 



Farquhar's Earliest 



Dwarf Erfurt 



Cauliflower. 



Best foF early, best for late, 

 best fop fopcing, and the 

 surest header of all. 



This strain is grown especially 

 for us, by the most reliable 

 grower in Northern Europe, 

 where the finest Cauliflower is 

 produced; and we believe 

 there is nothing finer offered. 

 This strain is short-stemmed, 

 small-leaved with large, finely 

 grained heads. Good seed is 

 absolutely necessary for suc- 

 cess in growing Cauliflower. 

 This strain is most carefully 

 grown, and with reasonable 

 care every plant should pro- 

 duce a fine head, Pkt., .25
