Dreer's Specialties for Better Food Gardens 



It may be extra 

 Such vegetables 



In each class of vegetables we find some members who are superior to others in one or another characteristic, 

 earliness or particularly attractive appearance, or superior flavor, or an ideal combination of many desirable factors, 

 logically become leaders and among such leaders, the finest strains are most eagerly sought by the growers. 



On this and the following pages we offer what we know to be prize strains of distinctly worth-while leaders among the most useful 

 vegetables. They are not necessarily novelties, but rather specialties which have won their way to the top through meritorious perform- 

 ances in gardens of Dreer customers everywhere.

Dreer' s Improved 

 Long-Standing Spinach 



845 Most varieties of Spinach have the bad habit 

 of shooting to seed before half of the crop has 

 been disposed of, but the outstanding feature 

 of the above sort is, as its name implies, its 

 remarkable long standing qualities. The 

 plant forms compact thick tufts, with numer- 

 ous leaves of a rich dark green, broad and 

 pointed, and much crumpled. The leaf stalks 

 are very short, being another important point 

 in favor of this sort. A sowing of this variety every 3 or 4 

 weeks will insure a constant supply of this healthful vege- 

 table. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; J lb., 30 cts.; lb., 85 cts.
