 Name — Plant This Pedigreed Strain 



There is no variety of Asparagus as good as Mary 

 Washington and whether you are growing for home 

 use only or for market you cannot afford to grow any 

 other. This wonderful new Asparagus was developed 

 and introduced by the U. S. Department of Agricul-

ture and although 

 country over. 



Rust Resistant — Profitable 



Growers everywhere are discarding all other varieties in favor of the famous 

 Mary Washington, because it is earlier, the stalks ore larger, more tender and 

 more productive than any other variety and more highly immune to rust, which 

 means that one planting will produce profitable crops for many years.

 Washington is tremendous because when it is once eaten, no 

 other variety will give satisfaction. The stalks are purplish 

 green color, large, tender and juicy. A very rapid grower, 

 which means many cuttings. 



We Recommend Two-Year Roots for Home 

 Gardens 



Experience has taught us that 2-year roots give better 

 results for garden planting than 1 -year roots. The 2-year 

 roots are much larger and have more food stored up, which 

 causes them to make more growth and yield larger crops of 

 asparagus sooner than the 1 -year roots.
