Johnson & Stokes' Market Gardeners' Cabbage No. 2 



In this very valuable variety we have the earliest and most compact of all large cabbages. 



It receives nothing but praise from Maine to California, and is pronounced by prominent gardeners 

 everywhere the very best of all large early cabbages, either for summer or winter use. In it we 

 have a cabbage so hardy and vigorous that it can be set earlier than Jersey "Wakefield or 

 JEarly Summer, and will produce fine, solid, marketable heads, more than twice as large as 

 Jersey Wakefield and one-half again as large as Early Summer, and come in as early as 

 the Liarg'e Wakefield, and fully a week earlier than Early Summer. When planted for a fall or 

 winter crop, there is no other cabbage which will withstand the summer sun so well, and is so sure to 

 form larg^e, deep, solid heads, which keep perfectly all winter. Such a cabbage is Johnson 

 & Stokes' Market Gardeners' Cabbage No. 2, and all who have not yet given it a trial will, 

 after growing it, be as enthusiastic in its praise as the thousands of other gardeners who are now 

 growing it to the exclusion of all other varieties. Oz., 40c.; X 1^)., $1.25 ; lb., $4x0 ; 2 lbs. for I7.50.

FLORACROFT SEED GARDENS 



we also plant outside each sea- 

 son, for thorough trial, samples of all "Novelties" ofiFered by other seedsmen, both in this country 

 and Europe, as well as anything which may be sent us by our customers, claimed to be new and supe- 

 rior. By this means we are enabled to satisfy ourselves of the true character and value of any 

 novelty before it can find a place in our Catalogue. 



NOVELTIES FOR 1901 



FREE FOR TRIAL AMONG OUR CUSTOMERS IN 1900 



Following our usual custom, we have again, this year, put up several thousand sample packets, for 

 advance trials, of a number of distinct novelties in both vegetables and flowers and not yet catalogued 

 by any seedsmen, and which we propose to introduce in 1901. Among them are a valuable New Cab= 

 bage from Germany, a New Radish from France, a New Parsley from England, a New Beet from 

 New England, and a new Southern Watermelon. We shall be glad to include one or more packets of 

 these in all orders when requested, or where an interest in new varieties is indicated.
