From PETER HENDERSON & CO.,.NEW YORK 2 AG 
Dwarf G28 Scotch Kale 
467. Largely grown for supplying ‘greens’ during the fall, winter 
and spring; also used small, like spinach; also useful in garnishing. The 
plants are hardy above zero; frost improves the quality. The leaves 
are very large, deeply curled and fringed, and of that desirable rich 
bright green color; the plants are of very dwarf, even growth, the leaves 
hugging the ground, so that they are not broken off by heavy, wet snow, 
as often happens with taller types. 
_ Kale should be sown during June and transplanted later for use during 
fall, winter or early spring. The flavor is best after being exposed to 
frost. For this reason the crop from summer sown seed is preferable, 
although it is often used in summer. (See engraving.)

“The Scotch Kale seed I purchased from you ‘produced the largest. plants we ever 
saw, some were as large as @ washtub. ; = 
The lettuce seed sown in the house in April and transplanted to the garden in May, 
gave heads like Cabbage.” 
Mrs. Grace Coutremont, 
Copenhagen, N. Y. 
You have mis-named your ‘dwarf’ green Scotch Kale, for we had one for dinner 
to-day that weighed seven pounds and nine ounces. I have grown Kale for forty 
years, but never had so good a variety before.”

473. <A singular variety of Cabbage 
with a Turnip-like bulb which 
forms immediately above the 
ground. — It is extremely tend- 
er and partakes of the flavor 
of both Turnips and Cabbage. 
The bulb is large enough to 
beeaten in from 10 to 12 weeks 
from sowing, and as they are 
more tender and delicately 
flavored before fully matured, 
it is advisable to make: suc- 
cessive sowings, rather than 
depend upon a standing crop. 
Should be in every garden (See 
engraving.) :

‘variety for winter and 
spring use, being very

earthed up. It is of slower

stocky stems about 3 in- 
ches through by 6 to 8 in- 
cheslong. The leaves are 
broad and flat, and little 
injured by snow; they re-
