HENDERSONS 



Thick-Leaved 

 Spinach 



The best sort for fall sowing to winter 

 over for spring cutting, being very hardy. 

 It produces large, thick, bright green 

 crumpled leaves of fine quality, yielding 

 a heavy crop, and is one of the best market 

 sorts. It is also much used for spring 

 sowing, being slow to run to seed and 

 standing the heat well until about the 

 middle of June. (See engraving.) Prite, 

 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 40c. M lb., $1.25 lb. 



HENDERSONS 



Long Season 

 Spinach 



Spinach sown in the late spring and 

 summer has a most aggravating habit of 

 going to seed just when it should be ready 

 for use. Henderson's Long Season growa 

 more slowly than others, but after attaining 

 its growth will stay in that condition for 

 a much longer time, so that with thia 

 variety there is nothing to hinder anyone 

 from enjoying this delicious vegetable dur- 

 ing the entire season. This peculiar quality 

 makes it ideal for a summer crop, a season 

 in which most varieties suffer severely, but it is also extremely hardy. Sown in 

 September and carried through the winter with slight protection, it will give a good 

 supply early in spring. The plant is small, with lustrous green leaves, which are 

 short, broad, very thick, and of so great substance that they lose less bulk in cooking 

 than any other. The leaf stems are very short, which so greatly reduces the size of 

 the plant that it forms a compact, dense rosette, perfect in color and substc- oe, 

 and unequalled in flavor. It occupies less room than any other sort. (See engraving.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 15c. oz., 45c. U lb., SI. 50 lb. 



"We -picked Henderson's Long Season Spinach that teas the nicest ice ever had, and the best 

 flavored. All the seeds ice received are growing beautifully." 



Mrs. W. D. BOOS, High St.; Newton, N. J. 

 "Our family agrees that we never ate such fine Spinach as Henderson's Long Season variety* 

 We had a succession of crops." Dr. CHAS. A. BAR SARD, Centerdale, R. I. 



NORFOLK 



Savoy- Leaved Spinach H 



A very popular variety to sow for the 

 late fall cutting. It is quick growing and 

 a heavy cropper, producing large, fleshy, 

 dark green leaves as deeply crumpled as 

 a Savoy Cabbage. It is largely grown in 

 the South for winter and early spring 

 crops. If sown in the spring it must be 

 cut as soon as ready, as it quickly runs 

 to seed. (See engraving.) Price, 5c. pkt. t 

 10c oz., 30c. \i lb., $1.00 lb. 



Victoria Spinach 



Stands in prime condition long after 

 other varieties have bolted to seed. The 

 August and September sowings should 

 receive special attention as they are 

 wanted to supply the table during the 

 coming winter and early next spring. 

 For this purpose sow Victoria. The soil 

 should be well prepared using soot and 

 lime or other material to lighten the soil 

 if heavy. Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. oz., 30c. 

 \i lb., $1.00 lb.
