the seed holds its green color for a long time, and

A new, surer heading, crisp lettuce (90 days) 
We are pleased to report that in the crisp head * 
lettuce class in our 1945 trials Imperial 456 was 
not only superior to others of the Imperial group, 
but also in our opinion the best head lettuce of 
the year. It made the highest percentage of heads, 
and they held an unusually long time in market- 
able condition. Detailed description on page 27.
