WE BEGIN SHIPMENTS OF THESE PLANTS DE- 

 CEMBER 1st, 1922, AND CONTINUE SHIPPING 

 UNTIL MAY 1st, 1923 



Order your plants for delivery about six weeks 

 earlier than you would set out home grown plants 



Our plants are grown, from the best strains of seed, in the south 

 where the soil and climatic conditions are just suited for growing 

 tough, hardy, frost proof cabbage plants. Plants are ready for ship- 

 ment when from eight to ten weeks old, the buds are then purple and 

 the outer leaves a reddish brown; when in this condition they can be 

 shipped to territory farther north and planted in the open ground a 

 month to six weeks earlier than home grown hot bed or cold frame 

 plants. The top of the plant does not grow until your regular spring 

 weather opens up, but the roots grow from the time the plants are 

 set. They have stood a temperature of eight to ten degrees above 

 zero without injury; the land freezing or the plants being covered 

 with ice, sleet and snow did not affect them. Headed cabbage is 

 ready ten days to three weeks earlier than from any other plants. 

 Frost proof cabbage plants may be shipped to any point where they 

 will arrive within four or five days, by parcel post, and should be 

 planted four to six weeks earlier than home grown plants. The plants 

 will be somewhat wilted and have a hard stunted look when received 

 which will be disappointing to persons who have never used them 

 before. Regardless of their appearance, however, they will produce 

 the results. 



Order early and state about what date you wish your plants sent. 

 We will ship just as near the time desired as weather and other con- 

 ditions permit, but 



PLEASE REMEMBER 



Your order must first be sent from our offices in Philadelphia to our 

 growing station in the south, and it will take several days to reach 

 there after we send it. Plants cannot be pulled and shipped in rainy 

 or freezing weather, when wet they heat too rapidly. We sometimes 

 have a week or ten days of continued wet weather which prevents 

 shipment. Your order will be accepted with the understanding that 

 you are willing to allow for delays, such as explained above, over 

 which we have absolutely no control.
