SPECIALTIES Vegetable Seeds 



Henderson's Charleston w.-^kefield. 



^'THE CH0I^LESTO^V' or Large Type of Wakefield. 



The Largest and best " First Early" Cabbage. 



For some years past customers of ours in the South have 

 requested us to procure for them, if possible, a Cabbage which 

 had all the characteristics of the Early Jersey \\ akeheld, but 

 of a greater size. With this in view, we carefully selected from 

 one of our best stocks of Wakefield a larger type, which is 

 now so fi.xed in its character that we can offer it with con- 

 fidence to truckers desiring a Cabbage of this kind, as will be 

 seen by this cut. This selection will average about 50 per 

 cent, larger in size than the old type of Wakefield, and is only 

 two or three days later. {See cztf.) Price, loc. per pkt. ; 40c. 

 per oz.; Si-25 per X lb.; S4-oo per lb. 



HEXDEI^SOX'S Eai^iy ^mrnil CaiUFLO^VEI^. 



The Earliest. The Surest Header. The Most 



Profitable. The Best Variety for Either 



Market or Family Gardens. 



Whether intended for private use or to be grown for market, 

 Henderson's Early Snowball Cauliflower is superior to 

 all others. First, because it is the earliest of all Cauli- 

 flowers, as has been conclusively shown, season afler season, 

 since we first made its merits known; second, because, under 

 the conditions of an ordinary favorable season nearly every 

 plant will form a perfect snow-ijihite head, averaging nine 

 inches in diameter, third, for the reason that its close grow- 

 ing, compact habit enables cne-third more to be planted on 

 tile same space of ground than can be done with any other 

 ^Barielv. For forcing under glass during winter and spring. 

 this fiarly Snowball variety is peculiarly well adapted, from 

 its dwarf growth and short outer leaves, and for this purpose 

 no other Cauliflower is now so largely grown. It also does 

 equally well for late planting. {See cut.) 25c, per pkt.; 

 $4.00 per oz.; $14.00 per ^ lb.

HE^'DEI(SO{('SSUCCESSIO{<^ C{JBBtIGE. 



HANDSOME, LARGE, 



AND A SURE HEADER. 



Henderson's Succession Cabbage has 

 probably been more thoroughly and critically 

 tested than any other variet)\ It is only a 

 few days later than the Early Summer, biit 

 is double the size, and is so finely bred that 

 in a field of ten acres every head was a 

 magnificent, perfect specimen, fit for exhibi- 

 tion purposes. Despite the low prices 

 realized by the cabbage crop last season, the 

 Succession brought paying prices wherever 

 grown, and may well be regarded as a boon 

 to the gardening community. Price, loc. per 

 pkt.; 40c. per oz. ; $1.25 per ^ lb.; S3. 50 

 per lb. 



HE^^)EI(SO^"S ^mxm KING CtlBBtlGE. 



The finest strain of late Cabbage extant. It produces 

 regular, even heads of enormous size, and can be relied upon 

 to produce a greater weight of crop per acre than any other late 

 sort, from the fact of its producing so few outer leaves\and 

 going all to head.. Price, loc. per pkt.; 40c. per oz.; $1.25 

 ■per % lb.; $3.50 per lb.
