Henderson's Dalkeith b s ^ S ut L s S 



OAC A very excellent selection of this estimable vegetable, far 

 ~^" too little known to American gardeners. Sown in June 

 in the latitude of New York, it produces an abundant crop of 

 Sprouts — solid, succulent and delicious — in the fall and early 

 winter. It is hardier than Cabbage, just as easily grown, and 

 available long after all other green vegetables are gone. Price, 

 pkt. 15c; oz. 50c; Vi lb. $1.75; transportation paid. 



"Last year was the. fir<;t year I ever planted a garden, and I dqnX 

 know what I would have done without it. I had all the vegetables J 

 wanted from June until fall, and was able to can enough to last us 

 until April, at least. We were still pulling Brussels Sprouts on the first 

 of December. In fact, although l/our seeds are the first I have ever used, 

 the results I have obtained were so good that I don't care to try any 

 oiher." ADOLPII E. MEIER. Box 48. Franklin. N. .1

Henderson's 



Earlykrop Cabbage 



Introduced by Peter Henderson <k Co. 1025 



OCQ ^ ne earuest round-headed 

 Zt)" Cabbage on the market. It 

 finishes with the Earliest Wakefield 

 type; but unlike that type, it re- 

 mains in perfect condition on the 

 field for a long time without bursting 

 or bolting to seed. This is a very 

 desirable quality for the home 

 gardener who wants his crop to 

 extend over a long period of time. 



The quality of this cabbage is 

 all that can be desired. It is very 

 tender and delicately flavored, 

 and when sliced raw it possesses a 

 delightful brittleness, making it 

 most desirable for salads, sla\v« 

 and the like. (Sec illustration.) 



Price, pkt. 20c; 3 pkts. 50c; 

 oz. $1.00; V< lb. $3.50; trans- 

 portation paid. 



Henderson's Original 



Early Jersey Wakefield 



The Best First-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 



Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 18H8 

 rp(*(\ The heads are pyramidal in shape, having a blunted or rounded 

 -OU peak. It is beyond question the best variety for spring and early 

 summer in the private garden. Its first appearance brings a welcome change 

 from the hard-headed winter sorts, for Early Jersey Wakefield is attractive 

 in appearance and essentially good in quality. It has a delicacy of flavor 

 rarely associated with Cabbage, and properly cooked may be made one of 

 the most palatable and appetizing dishes, and worthy of a place on any table. 

 Price, pkt. 10c; oz. 75c; Vi lb. $2.00; lb. $6.50; transportation paid. 



Henderson's Charleston Wakefield 



The Best Second-Early Pointed-Head Cabbage 



Introduced by Peter Henderson & Co. in 1892 



The pointed-head Cabbages are preferable to the larger flat kinds. 

 When used fresh from the garden they are of excellent quality, 

 quite free from the coarse rankness so commonly associated with Cabbage. 

 Henderson's Charleston Wakefield is larger, but fully equal in quality to 

 any of its class and admirably suited to succeed the very early sorts. 



Price, pkt. 10c; oz. 80c; V* lb. $2.50; lb. $8.00. transportation paid.
