SPINACH ™- 



Old Dominion (New) 



Blight-resistant. For late fall or very early spring 

 Days to maturity, 50. Wc are indebted to the Virginia Truck 

 Experiment Station for this new hybrid. A Virginia Savoy X King 

 of Denmark hybrid, it possesses the blight-resistance of the former 

 and the long-standing habit of the latter. The fohage is dark bluish 

 green and is evenly savoyed except at the leaf-tips. The growth is 

 compact and slightly flatter than Virginia Savoy, and it is two 

 weeks later in shooting to seed. As it makes a slower growth in 

 the fall than does Virginia Savoy, it is not recommended for a 

 fall cutting. It should be sown, therefore, only in the late fall or 

 in the early spring for spring cutting. We look on this as a valuable 

 acquisition to our list.

Dark Green Bloomsdale 



Darker shading gives plants fresher appearance 



Days to maturity, 40. The rich, dark color of this new strain 

 strongly recommends it over the standard Reselected Bloomsdale. 

 Although not quite so long-standing as the Long-standing Blooms- 

 dale, it remains much longer in marketable condition than the 

 standard Savoy type. On the other hand, it will mature just as 

 early as the Reselected Bloomsdale.

Reselected Bloomsdale 



Days to maturity, 40. The standard of its class. An extra-fine 

 stock of the well-known Bloomsdale type with leaves completely 

 crumpled and rounded. 



Price, Postpaid: Oz. 5 cts.; V41b. 15 cts.; lb. 50 cts.

Days to maturity, 45. Will hold ten days before shooting 

 to seed, a valuable asset, especially for late spring planting.
