HENDERSON'S 

 SUPERIOR 



Vegetable 



HENDERSON'S 



Long Season Spinach 



It forms a dense rosette of thick, 

 tender and succulent, crumpled leaves of 

 intensely dark green color; their great 

 substance and short leaf stalks enable 

 them to " stand up " in hot weather, re- 

 taining their freshness for a long period 

 after cutting. There is no other variety 

 that will stand so long without running 

 to seed and remain in an edible condition. 

 It is the best variety to be sown at month- 

 ly intervals for a successional supply.

 HENDEKSON'S 



Succession Cabbage 



Finest Cabbage in Existence, 



Whether for Medium Early, Main 



Crop of Winter Use. 



PERFECT in every respect. 



It comes in a few days later than 

 Early Summer, but is of nearly double 

 the size and is absolutely true to its 

 type under all conditions. We recom- 

 mend it either for the market gardenei , j 

 trucker or private planter, as it is a 

 perfect cabbage in every respect, not 

 only being of the largest size, but of 

 handsome color and of the finest 

 quality. It is a safe variety for an 

 amateur to plant, as it does well at 

 all seasons, and one is almost sure of 

 getting a crop, no matter when it is 

 planted. (See cut.)

PALMETTO ASPARAGUS 



HENDERSON'S 



Palmetto Asparagus r\oots 



(Ready in November for the South, in March and 

 April for the North.) We advise Spring planting in 

 the latitude of New York. 



A saving of one to two years is effected by planting roots 



The Palmetto is superior; it is not only larger 

 and much earlier, but is also a better yielder, and is 

 more even and regular in its growth. Average 

 bunches, containing fifteen shoots, measure 13i 

 inches in circumference and weigh about two pounds. 

 The Palmetto is equally well adapted for all sections 

 North and South. (See cut.) Per 100 Per 1000

Seeds for Fall Sowing 



HENDERSON'S 



Early Jersey Wakefield 

 Cabbage 



This famous Cabbage was introduced 

 by us, and still retains its lead as the best 

 first early in cultivation. Among its 

 merits may be mentioned its large size of 

 head for an early sort, and its uniformity 

 in producing a crop. The heads are of 

 pyramidal shape, with blunt peaks, and 

 are remarkably solid. The outside leaves 

 are small, though of great substance, 

 enabling the plants to stand severe 

 weather. Our seed is from highly bred 

 selected stock and is unequaled.

CHARLESTON WAKEFIELD CABBAGE 



HENDERSON'S 



Early Charleston Wake' 

 field Cabbage 



This is the large Early Cabbage, 

 which we bred from the Early " Jersey " 

 Wakefield, to meet a demand for a larger 

 heading sort. It possesses all of the val- 

 uable characteristics of the parent with 

 the advantages of the heads being fifty 

 per cent, larger, though a few days later. 

 Our strain of the seed is very superior.

HENDERSON'S 



Early Summer Cabbage 



This peerless variety was introduced by 

 us, it is the best second Early Cabbage, 

 makes a large, solid, round, flat head 

 averaging 8 to 10 pounds each, coming 

 in about ten days later than Wakefield.

HENDERSON S SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER 



HENDERSON S SUCCESSION CABBAGE 



Henderson's E ar [y Snowball Cauliflower 



The standard everywhere for quality, and the only Cauli- 

 flower that is absolutely certain to head (conditions being 

 congenial), forming a perfect snow-white head, averaging 

 nine inches in diameter. Beyond question the best cauli- 

 flower for either early or late, for family or market garden, 

 for forcing or cold frames; it heads where others fail. It 

 is the earliest of all Cauliflowers. Its close-growing, compact 

 habit enables one-third more to be planted on the same 

 space of ground than can be done with any other variety. 

 For forcing under glass during winter and spring, this Early 

 Snowball variety is peculiarly well adapted, from its dwarf 

 growth and short outer leaves, and for this purpose no other 

 Cauliflower is now so largely grown. (See cut.)
