NTER VARIETIES 



WHITE CHINESE WINTER, OR CELESTIAL — This excellent variety is sold also as Chinese 

 White Winter. The roots are long, cylindrical, with beautiful white skin and flesh, the white- 

 est and usually the least pungent of the winter varieties. When fully mature the roots are 

 six to nine inches long by about two and one-half to three and one-half inches in diameter. 

 The flesh is compact and crisp. 



CHINESE ROSE WINTER — Remarkably fine for winter use. The best of the winter sorts. 



LONG BLACK SPANISH — A large winter variety; one of the hardiest, with dark green leaves, 

 firm in texture, keeping until spring. 



LONG WHITE SPANISH (Winter) — Fine keeping quality. 

 BOUND WHITE SPANISH — A good fall or winter variety.

CULTURE — Good plants are easily grown in any good garden soil. Sow seed thinly in 

 shallow drills a foot a part, thin to 4 or 5 inches. Keep soil loose and free from weeds. The 

 plants are liable to vary considerably. Pick out the strongest and best. In fall or spring 

 Following, transplant to the permanent bed, 4 feet apart each way, in deep, warm and very 

 rich soil. The more manure the better stalks. For winter forcing take up two-year roots in 

 fall, leave out to freeze, then bed close together on cellar botton or under greenhouse bench in 

 the dark.

SPINACH 



BLOOMSDALE SAVOY SPINACH 



This is quite an important crop with market gardeners, 

 and one easily managed. For summer use, sow early in 

 spring, in drills eight inches to one foot apart, cover- 

 ing the seed one inch deep. Select rich soil and manure 

 liberally . A succession may be obtained by sowing at 

 intervals of two weeks through the season. For very 

 early spring sow in August, and protect the plants through 

 the winter by a thick covering of clean straw or some 

 other similar light covering. Spinach is used principal- 

 ly as greens for boiling, and is very highly esteemed for 

 this purpose. 



BLOOMSDALE SAVOY — The variety most generally used 

 in the East and especially throughout the South for shipping. 

 Leaves large, round and thick, very much savoyed and 

 rich deep green. One of the earliest varieties. Seed 

 round. 



G. & T. CO.'S EXTRA CURLED AMERICAN-GROWN 

 BLOOMSDALE SAVOY SPINACH — This is grown espe- 

 cially for us, and is without exception the best type of 

 Savoy Spinach in existence. It is beautifully curled and 

 wrinkled, the leaves large, thick and heavy, produced 

 in great numbers, and stands handling and transportation 

 better than any other sort; in fact, we hardly think we 

 could say too much about this valuable acquisition to the 

 spinach family. Sold only in sealed bags. 



NEW ZEALAND. — This endures heat and is best for 

 summer..
