FLORIDA HIGH BUSH EGG PLANT 



99. The Florida High Bosh Egg" Plant has proved of the greatest value to Southern truckers and 

 shippers. It has been grown in Florida for the past three or four years. It is remarkable for its vigorous 

 growth and productiveness, is very hardy, and will stand more cold weather than the New York 

 Improved. The hot sun does not blight the blossoms. The plant has a characteristic leaf unlike any 

 other Egg Plant we know of. It grows from three to four feet high, erect and sturdy, free from thorns 

 Fruit is large, oblong m shape and purple, though not so deep a color as the New York Improved It 

 resists drought and wet weather to a wonderful degree, partly on account of its strong upright growth. 

 It stands the cold better, and is the only Egg Plant that stands shipping from this section to the North- 

 ern rnarkets under almost all circumstances. It is of, a large size, first-class shape and 

 superior flavor. Its shipping qualities ar e the very best. It brings the highest price in the 

 Northern markets, keeping its freshness and condition much longer than any other variety. 

 The growers realized good returns for 

 this variety when all other varieties have 

 been reported "arrived in bad condition," 

 and many would not plant any other 

 variety. PKt. 10c. Oz. 25c. 1/4 Lb. 90c.
