H enderson ^Succession Cabbage 



ABSOLUTELY RERRECX I IM EVERY RESRECT, 



The Grandest Cabbage in Existence! 



Whether for Summer 



or Winter use. 



The Succession Cabbage we consider one of our most valuable 

 contributions to horticulture. It would be classed as a second 

 early variety, coming in a few days later than Early Sum- 

 mer, but it is immeasurably superior to that variety ; it is m 

 of nearly double the size and is absolutely true to its ^8 

 type under all conditions, In addition to this, it has J\\ 



no tendency whatever to run to seed. "We can say 

 without exaggeration that it is the finest cabbage in 

 existence to-day ; whether for medium early, main* 

 crop or late use, it has no equal. It is so finely 

 bred and so true to type that in a field of 

 twenty acres every head appears alike. 



We can recommend it either for the 

 market gardener, trucker or private 

 planter, as it is a perfect cabbage in 

 every respect, not only being of the ^j| 

 largest size, but of handsome color ifej|j|^ 

 and of the finest quality. It is 

 probably the safest variety for 

 an amateur to plant as it does 



well at all seasons, and one 

 is almost sure of getting a 

 crop, no matter when it is 

 planted. Our stocks of cab- 

 bage of all varieties have for 

 years been the acknowledged 

 standard of excellence in this 

 country, and when we state 

 that we consider Succession 

 to be the most valuable va- 

 riety that we have ever in- 

 troduced, our opinion of its 

 great merit will be apparent 

 to all. ' We could fill many 

 pages of our catalogue with 

 unsolicited flattering testi- 

 monials that we have re- 

 ceived from all sections of 

 the country in regard to its 

 great excellence.

Gentlemen :• — "I am right here to state that 

 your Succession Cabbage is the best cabbage 

 " that has ever been planted on my grounds. I 

 planted four other kinds of cabbage side by 

 side of your Succession, and Succession beat 

 them all. It is the grandest cabbage yet in- 

 troduced ; although it has been a very dry 

 summer here and all other cabbages failed. 

 I have heads of your Succession that 

 would fill a half-bushel measure. 



" Friends, I advise you all who receive 

 Mr. Peter Henderson's catalogue to try his 

 great Succession Cabbage, for it is the 

 greatest cabbage that has ever been 

 planted, and I speak of what I know to be 

 correct." levi m. DOVE, Criders, Va. 



"Our crop of Succession Cabbage has been 



harvested from a 16 acre field. We have 



shipped 5,382 barrel-crates of as fine cabbage 



as ever grew, an average of S26 barrel- cratei 



per acre. The cabbage suffered for want of 



water the latter part of the harvest. Had we 

 had seasonable rains we believe the field would 

 baTe made 400 barrel-crates per acre." 



GERATY & TOWLES, 

 VooDg'i Uland, S. C. 

 "Henderson's Succession, for a medium 

 early variety, is the finest and most perfect 

 early cabbage in existence. It grows large, 

 hard heads of uniform size, and is the most 

 beautiful type cf cabbage I ever saw. In 9 

 years of cabbage raising I have seen noth- 

 ing to equal it, and am perfectly delighted 

 with It. It is bound to fill a large place in 

 the cabbage culture of this country." 



E. C. TROWBRIDGE, Tuliy, N. Y. 



**I got Henderson's Succession Cabbage 

 from you last year, and my field was the 

 admiration of every one who saw it. I 

 shipped 1,560 barrels of as fine cabbage as 

 ever went out of Florida."

OR LARCE TYPE OF WAKEFIELD. 



For some years past customers have requested us to procure for them, if possible, 



a Cabbage which had all the characteristics of the Early Jersey Wakefield, but of a 



greater size. With this in view, we carefully selected from one of our best stocks of 



Wakefield a lareer type, which is now so fixed in its character that we can offer it with con- 



This selection will average about 50 per cent, larger in size than the old type of Wakefield,
