HENDERSON'S PALMETTO ASPARAGUS ROOTS. 



( Ready in yoz'tJiibcrypr the South and in March and April/or the 2\orth.) 



Early, large, tender, delicious. The finest Asparagus grown. The Palmetto is not only much earlier, but is also 

 a better yielder, and is more even and regrular in its growth than any other variety, and must eventually supplant all older sorts. 

 Average bunches, containing fifteen shoots, measure 13^2 inches in circumference, and weigh about two pounds. The Palmetto has now 

 been planted in all parts of the country, and it has been proven equally well adapted for all sections North and South. Its quality is un- 

 equaled. (See cut.) 



Palmetto. Asparagus roots (^a saving of one to two years is affected by planting roots.) Splendid two-year-old, $1.50 per 

 100, $10.00 per 1,000. 50 roots at 100 rate : 500 at 1.000 rate. If to be sent by mail add 40c. per 100 to the prices.

"HENDERSON'S SNOWBALL." 



It is hardly necessary for us to describe this variety at all, as 

 its name has now become a household word ■wherever this 

 delicious vegetable is grown. Snowball Cauliflower is the 

 standard everywhere for quality with the seeds- 

 man, the market gardener and the amateur. While 

 originally recommended and used as an early variety, it has not 

 only supplanted all other sorts for early spring planting, but it 

 has largely driven out the large late sorts for fall use, being 

 much finer in quality, and the only Cauliflower that is absolutely 

 certain to head when the conditions are right, forming a perfect 

 snow-white head, averaging nine inches in diameter. 



HENDERSON'S EARLY SNOWBALL CAULI- 

 FLOWER is superior to all others. It is the earliest of all 

 Cauliflowers. Its close-growing, compact habit enables one-third 

 more to be planted on the same space of ground than can be done 

 with any other variety. For forcing under glass during winter 

 and spring, this Early Snowball variety is peculiarly well 

 adapted, from its dwarf growth and short outer leaves, and for 

 this purpose no other Cauliflower is now so largely grown. (See
