A STERLING NOVELTY FOR 1922 

 HENDERSON'S NEW 



Golden Heart Summer Endive 



{Sho'UJji in colors on opposite page) 



A Valuable New Salad Plant 



A new addition to the famOy of Salad Plants should be hailed 

 with delight for there.are no vegetables that are of greater importance. 

 Their healthful, in^dgorating and zest-gi\'ing qualities are fully 

 recognized and extolled by leading dietitians. 



Henderson's Golden Heart Summer Endive is particularly 

 valuable because it reaches perfection in midsummer, when other 

 salad plants are scarce. 



Henderson's Golden Heart Summer Endive is a vigorous grower 

 and produces an attractive, very compact plant. As the plant 

 develops the center changes from green to a beautiful creamy 

 yellow, gi-\-ing 'it a most in-\ating and appetizing appearance, and 

 in fact gives the impression of ha-^dng been artificially blanched. 

 The leaves which are crisp and tender have a delightful, nutty 

 flavor that is greatly reHshed. Price, 25c. pkt. 



Henderson's Goreless Carrot 



(Shown in colors on opposite page) 



The Finest Early Table Variety, Meltingly Tender and Sweet 



This Carrot, recentlj^ introduced by us, has proven one of the 

 most universaUy popular varieties ever sent out. People who never 

 liked Carrots before are delighted with the melting tenderness and 

 sweet, mild flavor of Henderson's Coreless. 



It is a half-long, cylindrical Carrot, blunt-pointed, with a small 

 tap-root and small top. They run verj- uniform in shape and size, 

 6 to 7 inches long, by 1}^ inches through; clean skinned, smooth, 

 easily pulled and keep well. The flesh is of fine texture, entirely 

 devoid of stringiness, coarseness and woody heart or core. The 

 color of the flesh is the rich red-orange so attractive when served. 

 Henderson's Coreless excels all other half-long Carrots in earhness 

 without being inferior to them in productiveness. (See opposite 

 page.) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. oz., 75c. M lb-, $2.50 lb. 



"The Coreless Carrots grown from your seed this year were wonderful and 

 the admiration of all who saw them." 



Miss GRACE BUTLER, Highland Falls, N. Y. 



"I obtained a fine crop from the Coreless Carrot seed which I secured from 

 you, and like them better than any carrot 1 have ever raised." 



R D M. OT^TT CLL. Meshoppen, Pa. 



Henderson's Crimson Globe Beet 



(Shou'7i in colors on opposite page) 



A Grand Second Early and Main Crop Variety 



This variety has met Tsith great favor and is remarkably popular 

 among gardeners in all sections of the country. It needs no recom- 

 mendation to those who have grown it. It is of medium size, generally 

 about 3 inches in diameter, very handsome in shape, a little deeper 

 than round, -ndth a smooth, even surface. The leaves are rich 

 crimson in color, borne on slender stems, which grow quite com- 

 pactly, and are thus easUy removed. The fle.sh is deep crimson, 

 ringed and zoned in varjing shades. It is exquisitely tender, and 

 delicious in flavor. Though it grows quickly enough for very early 

 use, it will remain tender for a very long period. Price, lOc, pkt. 

 25c. oz., 65c. M lb., S2.00 lb. 



"Henderson's Crimson Globe Beet is of finest quality and handsome appear- 

 ance, tender, and delicious." 



WM. E. VAIL, Yorktown Heights, N. Y. 



HENDERSON'S FAMOUS 



Easy-Blanching Celery 



(Shown in colors on opposite page) 



Gaining in Popular Favor by Leaps and Bounds 



Emphatically Distinct from Any Other Sort. The Easiest and 



Quickest to Blanch. Excels All Late Sorts in Long-Keeping 



Quality. The Earliest and the Latest in One Row 



This splendid Celery was named and introduced by us. It has 

 already taken rank with other vegetables we have introduced, many 

 of which are the standard of merit and have achieved a world-wide 

 reputation. The original stock has been improved under our watch- 

 ful care and it is today as near perfection as nature can make it. 



Henderson's Easy-Blanching Celery excels in the quahties that 

 give Self-Blanching Celeries their value; it bleaches earlier and 

 quicker than any of this class. It is the longest keeping variety 

 grown (if put away green) , excelling in this respect every other sort. 

 It has proved to be among the most valuable additions we have made 

 to the vegetable gardens of the world, and fit to take rank with the 

 rnany famous varieties of vegetables with which our name is asso- 

 ciated. 



Henderson's Easy-Blanching Celery is so easily grown that the 

 amateur can produce Celery equal in quality to that which formerly 

 could be grown only by skilled men equipped with years of experience. 



The plant is of medium height, of great vigor — having thick rather 

 than broad stalks, with shallow ribs. The leaves are slightly but 

 densely crumpled, distinguishing it from any other variety. Its 

 quality is superb. 



The stalks are tender and brittle, and the flavor extremely spicy 

 and aromatic. (See opposite page.) Price, 20c. pkt., 3 pkts. for 

 50c., $2.00 oz., $7.00 I4 lb. 



" Your catalogue does not do justice in 

 praise of Henderson's Easy Blanching 

 Celery. It brings the highest price of any 

 celery grown in this market." 



Mr. J. H. EPLER, Elizabeihtown, Pa. 



"On this date, April loth, I am still 

 usiyig Easy Blanching Celery. It is in 

 excellent condition and the flavor is grand." 



HARRY D. COTTON, 



Connersville, Ind, 



"I have pleasure in mailing a photograph 

 and clipping from our daily paper in regard 

 Id our success in growing Henderson's 

 Easy Blanching Celery. We have tried all 

 sorts of celery but none can compare to 

 Henderson's Easy Blanching." 



A. MILLER &» SONS, 



Creston, 



Iowa. 



"Last year we grew the finest Celery in 

 this locality from Henderson's Easy 

 Blanching Celery seed." 



Miss MAR Y A. LEHMA N, Canton, 0. 



"The Henderson Easy Blanching which 

 I packed away last fall is delicious and 

 looking fine at this date, March Wth." 



W. L. EVERIT, Wellsville, N. Y.
