CV] T is hardly necessary for us to describe 

 jty this variety at all, as its name has now 

 ^"^ become a household word wherever this 

 delicious vegetable is grown. Hender- 

 1 son's Snowball Cauliflower is the standard 

 everywhere for quality with the market 

 gardener and the amateur. While originally 

 recommended and used as an early variety, 

 it has not only supplanted all other sorts for 

 early spring planting, but it has largely driven 

 out the large late sorts for fall use, being much 

 liner in quality, and the one Cauliflower that is 

 absolutely certain to head when conditions are 

 ordinarily favorable, invariably forming a per- 

 fect snow-white head, averaging not less than 

 9 inches and often attaining a size of 10 to 12 

 inches in diameter, and the "flower" is so 

 compact, so deep and solid that the heads will 

 outweigh those of any other strain. 



Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower is superior 

 to all others. It is the earliest of all Cauli- 

 flowers. Its close-growing, compact habit en- 

 ables one-third more to be planted on the same 

 space of ground than can be done with other 

 varieties. For forcing under glass during winter 

 and spring Henderson's Snowball is peculiarly 

 well adapted, from its dwarf growth and short 

 outer leaves, and for this purpose no other 

 Cauliflower is now so largely grown. (See cut.)

We could show thousands of letters similar to the following: 



"Henderson's Snowball Cauliflower, I am sure, is the best kind in existence, no 

 matter how loud and strong this and that seed house is praising (In trs, claiming tin m as 

 the best in the world. By my ou n exvi rii nee, I know that yours is far ahead of all others; 

 yours is not only the earliest but the surest heading Cauliflower, while other much- 

 lauded kinds were of no value." 



A. KATZWWKEL, Market Gardener. Mendota, Ills. 



"I sowed your Snowball Cauliflower the loth of February, in boxes insidi , and set 

 the plants in the open ground as soon as free from frost, and picked good-sized Cauliflowers 

 the 10th of June — many were 10 to 12 inches in diameter, and our 1 ', imhrs, and nil 

 perfect heads." M.C.CHADEAYNE, Ossin ng,N.Y. 



"Your Snowball Cnuliflower was excellent in every respect; every plant formed a 



fine head, while right beside them I grew 1,000 plants from seed I got from 



which did not give me a dozen heads. I have bought several strums of Snowball Cauli- 

 flower from different seedsmen, but I now see that I never get the true type of Henderson's 

 Snowball excepting from you." 11'. E. A VERY, Honesdale, Pa. 



"From one ounce of your Snowball Cauliflower seed I raised 3,500 plants. I have 

 tried Cauliflower seed from several seedsmen, but never hare had any success except 

 with the true Henderson Snowball." ARTHUR L. MILLER. Edella, Pa. 



"My Snowball Cauliflower grown from your seeds was a perfect success, both outside 

 and under glass, not one failing to head. Size and quality the best." 



JAMES WHITE. Gardener to Jesse Tyson. Esq., Melvale, Md. 



"Would say that I have tried so-called Snowball Cauliflower from other apparently 

 reliable houses than yours and invariably failed; in different localities, too. 1 am now 

 convinced that HENDERSON'S Snowball is a wonder." 



GEO. A. M ERR ITT, Highland Mills, N. Y.
