HENDERSON'S 

 NEW 



Unrivaled 

 Lettuce 



SUCCEEDS AT ALL 



SEASONS 



EARLY, TENDER, CRISP 



and BUTTERY 



This is a new variety, and hag 

 proved to be a very valuable acqui- 

 sition to the Lettuce family. It is 

 very early in maturing, being fit for 

 use about the same time as Hender- 

 son's Big Boston, which it resembles 

 somewhat in appearance and in the 

 size of the head. Henderson's Un- 

 rivaled Lettuce is pale green in 

 color, shading to creamy white at 

 the center of the head, which is 

 formed of closely wrapped crispy 

 leaves giving it great compactness 

 of form. It has a pleasing buttery 

 appearance, and we highly recom- 

 mend this sort, feeling confident that 

 it will become a prime favorite. {See 

 engraving.)

HENDERSON'S 



Tenderheart Lettuce 



A succulent, early head Lettuce. Every plant is uniformly 

 perfect, nearly all head, with few outside leaves arid most 

 attractive in appearance. The heads are compactly formed 

 of densely packed cream-colored heart leaves of fine quality, 

 tender, crisp and sweet. Color of the outside leaves pala 

 green, slightly tinged reddish-brown. It is not only very early 

 and hardy but stands early summer heat well, and though 

 it does not bolt to seed for two weeks after heading we do not 

 recommend it for use during very hot weather. (See engrav- 

 ing.) Price, 15c. pkt., 50c. oz., $1.50 }i lb.
