* 622 Maule's Everlasting or New Zealand Spinach 



50 days. A Grand Hot Weather Vegetable. Endures Heat; Best Spinach for Summer Use 



We are induced to give this excellent vegetable a prominent place In 

 our catalog on account of highly satisfactory behavior oh our trial 

 grounds, and because it is so acceptable on any dinner table during the 

 hottest mid-surumer months, when ordinary spinach is practically 

 unobtainable. The true spinach is a cold-weather plant, making its best 

 growth during autumn and spring, and even going through the winter 

 in the open ground with little or no protection. 



Maule's Everlasting or New Zealand Spinach is a different plant, bot- 

 anically, both in habit of growth and In the size and shape of Its seeds; 

 but in color, shape, succulence and taste of leaf it is remarlcably like 

 the true spinach. Thri%-«s during hot weather and in a ay soil, rich or 

 poor. Ready to cut In 50 days, The tender shoots are of good quality 

 and may be cut throughout the summer. The plant becomes very large 

 and spreading. The leaves are comparatively small, broad and pointed. 

 Both types of spinach are boiled and served as "greens," and are appe- 

 tizing and wholesome; in fact, no other vegetable can quite take the 

 place of spinach. This is why Everlasting Spinach, served in midsum- 

 mer, has attracted the attention and won the praises of so many of our 

 customers. We recommend Everlasting Spinach to all gardeners who 

 wish to cater to a choice summer dinner table; also, to market men who 

 have customers for the ordinary spinach. The best Summer Spinach 

 for the gardener. Does well in all sections and soils.
