Culture 



The soil and culture requirements of Cauliflower and Cabbage 

 are similar. Seed may be sown and handled in the same way as 

 described in the Cabbage culture. It is best to plan your planting to 

 have no Cauliflower maturing in the hot summer months, as the cool 

 weather of late Spring and early Fall is best adapted for the growing 

 of perfect heads. 



Bolgiano's New Century Cauliflower 



54. The Best in the World 



It heads when others fail. Large, perfect heads, 

 measure from 12 to 14 inches in diameter. The beautiful 

 white heads are compact, deep and solid. Heads will 

 outweigh those of any other strain. It is the earliest of 

 all Cauliflower. One-third more can be planted on the 

 same space than can be done with other varieties because 

 of its close growing, compact habit. It is the Most Care- 

 fully Grown Cauliflower Seed in the World. (See Special- 

 ties, page 9.) 



59. Extra Early Dwarf Erfurt. Small frame with 

 short outer leaves, medium heads of uniform quality, 

 a good late variety. 



105. Danish Giant or Dry Weather Cauliflower. 



Well adapted to localities having dry spells. Produces 

 large solid heads, one week earlier than Snow Ball. (See 

 Specialties, page 9.) 



Early, very hardy, produces good size snow white heads. Our strain of this variety is unex- 



Bolgiano's Earliest Snow Ball Cauliflower 



55. Snow Ball Cauliflower, 

 celled. 



57. Veitches Autumn Giant. A large growing sort. Produces good size heads, rather late in maturing, especially adapted 

 to climates with long growing seasons. 



Brussels Sprouts 



Culture. Sow in May, in the same manner as Cauliflower, and transplant in July, 2 feet apart in rows 2% feet apart. Brussels Sprouts is the very best 

 Winter vegetable that can be grown. It is as hardy as the common Curled Greens. When cooked through, such sprouts melt in the mouth like the tenderest 

 Cauliflower, and are equally as good. If more widely known, Brussels Sprouts would be as popular as it is valuable. 



22. BOLGIANO'S MATCHLESS LONG ISLAND IMPROVED BRUSSELS SPROUTS. Resembles cabbage very closely 

 except that where the cabbage grows only one large head, the Brussels Sprouts grow large numbers of small, delicious, tender, 

 heads at each leaf joint, throughout the entire length of the stalk. These small heads measure from one and a half to two inches 

 in diameter, and are of light green color. This improved strain is an exceptionally heavy yielder. Plant grows from one and a 

 half to two feet high. Brussels Sprouts are usually offered for sale in market packed in quart boxes and always bring a very 

 high price. It is a profitable crop to grow. 



355. PARIS HALF DWARF BRUSSELS SPROUTS. Being dwarf this variety is not as heavy a yielder as the larger 

 variety, but is equal in quality. 



Collards 



23. Georgia Southern, or Creole. Forms a large, loose, 

 open head, or a mass of leaves on a tall stem. Freezing does not 

 injure but rather improves their quality. Sow thick in drills, 

 in rich ground, transplanting when 4 inches high, or sow in 

 drills where the plants are to remain and thin to 1 or 2 feet 

 apart in the row when of proper size. In the South, sow from 

 January to May, and August to October. 



590. North Carolina Short Stem. A decided improvement, 

 and has proved very popular wherever grown. Has short stem, 

 large spreading leaves, very hardy, withstanding drought in 

 Summer and cold in Winter. Its flavor and cooking qualities 

 are the very best.
