BLACK BEAUTY 



This is the earliest of the large fruited varieties, and undoubtedly is 

 the most popular. The plants are strong, vigorous, and produce a 

 heavy crop of uniformly large, very dark purple egg shape fruits which 

 retain their color a long time. Our strain of Black Beauty will be found 

 superior to the ordinary stocks in use today. \, .. ..

ENDIVE 



DEEP HEART FRINGED 



This variety is an entirely new type of Endive, developed from Full- 

 Hearted Batavian, but is entirely distinct from that variety. The plants 

 are of more upright growth than other varieties; the outer leaves turn 

 upward thus reducing the possibility of injury from bottom rots. The 

 leaves resemble Green Curled in color, but are broader, although the 

 leaf margins are as deeply cut and curled. The hearts are well filled 

 and closely packed, with numerous well blanched fine leaves. The 

 plants of Deep Heart Fringed often reach a diameter of about 12 

 inches and a depth of 7 inches or more. A most desirable variety for 



market and shipping.

GREEN CURLED ROSE RIBBED. The rose colored mid-ribs make this 

 variety a popular salad plant. The plant is large, with well filled 

 center or heart. The leaves are not as deeply cut as Green Curled, 

 and do not blanch as well early in the season as that variety. An 

 excellent type for fall crop.

GOLDEN HEART CURLED 



This variety is the most attractive Endive on the market, and of par- 

 ticular value because it matures in midsummer when other salad plants 

 are scarce. The center of the plant changes from areen 

 to creamy yellow, and aives the impression of havinq been 

 artificially blanched. The leaves are crisp, tender, and 

 of good quality.
