Henderson’s Succession Cabbage. 
ABSOLUTELY PERFECT IN EVERY RESPECT, 
° - Whether for S 
The Grandest Cabbage in Existence! Wik s Selvinter use: 
. 
The Succession Cabbage we consider one of our must 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 
of nearly double the size and is ahsolutely true to its 
type under all conditions. In addition to this, it has 
no tendency whatever to runtoseed. We can say 
without exaggeration that it is the finest cabbuge in 
existence to-day ; whether fur 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 jt either for the 
market gardener, trucker or private 
planter, as it is a perfect cabbage in 
every respect, not only being of the 
largest size, but of handsome color 
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.
