Henderson's Selected 



Market Gardener's Stocks 



Danvers Half -Long 



A handsome half-long cylindrical, stump-rooted Carrot of good 

 size and of a rich dark orange color; it grows to a large size; is smooth, 

 and the flesh very close in texture with very little core. It is a first- 

 class Carrot for all soils and has yielded 25 to 30 tons per acre, with the 

 smallest length of root of any now grown. It is more easily harvested 

 than the longer types and is excellent to store for winter, for stock or 

 table use. (See engraving.) Price, oz. 15c, 34 lb- 40c. , lb. $1.25. 

 (10 lbs. and over SI. 15 lb.) (25 lbs. and over $1.00 lb.) 



Pi-irl*» rtf rVnmnrL- Pride of Denmark is of the Nantes type, 

 rrme ot L,enmdrK ' with roots about the same length as that 

 variety, but heavier at the shoulder, and a little more pointed. They 

 are very smooth and of a good rich orange color, giving them a most 

 attractive appearance. The tops are bushy and rather large, which is 

 desirable in a market variety. Price, oz. 40c, 34 lb. $1.25, lb. $4.00.

 ine nuicninson. roots are not so Droad at tne shoulder and 



are also considerably longer and more cylindrical in shape. . 



Hutchinson Carrot yields a heavy crop and is a great favorite in 

 some of the eastern states being extensively grown by the market 

 gardeners. We "consider our stock of Hutchinson to be extra fine.

Tenders weet, Henderson's 



Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1928 



Tenders weet is quite distinct; and carries the richest color ever seen on a 

 carrot. The flesh is a deep orange and the outer skin is scarlet. 



The roots measure eight to ten inches in length, and taper slightly off to a 

 blunt end. 



Tendersweet is very hardy and a heavy cropper, and we are certain that it 

 is going to be a. favorite with market growers. The tops are quite different 

 from the tops of other carrots; as both the midribs and the stems showa distinct 

 purple tinge. Tendersweet has been tested under unfavorable conditions last 

 year and yet produced a good crop where most others failed. (See engraving). 

 Price, oz. 50c, 34 lb. $1.50, lb. $5.00. 



"libought cheap Danvers Carrot seed from another firm last year, and had such poor results in yield 

 andilype of roots, I said "Peter Henderson for me in future." One can always count on -well-bred vege- 

 tables from your seeds." E. F. WADE, Knappa, Oregon. 



"The Danvers Half Long (.Selected) Carrot is the best I ever saw. Some fields sown with it yielded 

 33 tons per acre of good table grade carrots." HENRY CREFFRATH, South Lima, N. Y.
