spinach 



940 S. S. All Seasons 



This variety is peculiarly adapted to warm weather. It is a beau- 

 tifully curled, dark green Spinach, very compact, with short stems, 

 spreading on the ground in a large rosette. The leaves are thick and 

 well crumpled, which adds very much to their attractiveness. It 

 will stand longer than any other variety without shooting to seed, 

 and for this reason makes the best summer Spinach we know of, 

 although it is perfectly hardy and can be used in the fall, if desired. 

 For the home-garden, S. S. All Seasons is especially recommended, 

 and its splendid qualities can be attested by its universal use among 

 our large market-gardeners. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, Vilb. 20c, lb. 50c 



955 Thick-Leaved Viroflay 



The heavy, thick leaves are of excellent quality. The heads of this 

 variety are larger than any other we know of. We would advise it 

 for market purposes rather than the home-garden, although some 

 people prefer it on their table to any other. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., 

 Vilb. 20 cts., lb. 40 cts. 



945 Round-Seeded Savoy, or Bloomsdale 



This is the very best variety we know of for fall sowing. It has 

 thick, large leaves, finely curled and crumpled, producing mag- 

 nificent heads of excellent quality. We believe it is one of the most 

 profitable crops when grown on a large scale. We have encouraged 

 many of our customers to go into it heavily, with almost invariably 

 good results. Round-seeded Savoy is a great barrel-filler and is 

 excellent for shipping. Pkt. 5 cts., oz. 10 cts., Vilb. 20c, lb. 50c 



950 Long-Standing 



This is another hot-weather sort, and resembles very much the S. S. 

 All Seasons, which was selected from it. The Long-standing is a 

 straight-leaved Spinach, sometimes called "Dog-ear." It is, never- 

 theless, one of the very best varieties for hot-weather use, and a 

 large number of our customers still hold to it. As a home-garden 

 Spinach we believe it is equal to the S. S. All Seasons in every respect, 

 as its quality is just as good. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c, Vilb. 20c, lb. 50c.
