NEW LIST OF VEGETABLE SEEDS FOR 1881. 



DREER S EARLY DRUMHEAD CABEAGE. 



The following varieties, to which we give space, are not all new introductions, but are worthy 

 of special merit, having been tried and their superiority shown. The description of New 

 Varieties are as given by their respective growers: 



Remit for postage 16 ets. per pound, or 25 ets. per quart, or fraction thereof when ordered to be sent by mail. 

 BEAX, Crystal White Wax. A new and distinct 

 white-seeded variety, with waxy transparent pods. It 

 is stringless, crisp, tender, and" of the richest flavor. 

 The pods, though quick to develop, are slow to har- 

 den, and therefore retain their delicious tenderness on 

 the bush longer than any other sort. Price, per pkt., 

 10 cts. ; per qt.. 50 cts. ; per bush., $12.00. 

 BEAN, Golden Wax. This variety is ten days earlier 

 than the German Black Wax ; pods long, brittle, en- 

 tirely stringless, of a ricli golden color; as a snap it 

 excels all others in rich buttery flavor, while as a 

 bean for winter use it has few equals. Pkt., 10 cts. ; 

 qt., 40 cts. ; bush., $9.00. 

 CABBAGE, Dreer's Early Drumhead. A favorite 

 with the market gardeners ; a second-early variety, 

 with large solid heads, broad and roundish, sometimes 

 slightly conical; tender, fine-grained and excellent 



flavor ; being also adapted for fall and winter use. It 

 is grown with great care and we consider it the best 

 strain in the market. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 60 cts.; lb., 

 $6.50. 

 CABBAGE, Perfection Drumhead Savoy. 

 American grown seed of superior quality, no better in 

 the market, the largest solid-heading sort, very finely 

 curled, short stalk, and compact grower, of excellent 

 flavor, with the richness of the Cauliflower. Pkt., 10 

 cts. ; oz., 50 cts. ; lb., $5.00. 

 CARROT, Danvers Half-Long Scarlet. A new 

 intermediate variety ; about midway between the Long 

 Orange and Short Horn, generally growing with a 

 stump-root; of a rich orange-red color, very smooth 

 and handsome. Pkt., 5 cts. ; oz., 20 cts. ; lb., $2.00. 

 CAULIFLOWER, Dreer's Selected Dwarf Er- 

 furt. The earliest in cultivation, small- 

 leaved dwarf for forcing, producing 

 very solid pure-white heads of the finest 

 quality; about 15 inches high; its dwarf'habit and short outer leaves allows 

 of it being planted 20 inches apart each way, and has proven the best for 

 the above purpose. Pkt., 25 cts. ; oz., $6.00. 



CELERY, Golden Dwarf. A 

 new distinct variety of great 

 value. In size of growth it is the 

 same as the Half Dwarf White, 

 except when blanched, the heart 

 is large and of a golden-yellow 

 color, making it attractive for 

 market or private use. It is 

 solid, of excellent flavor, and 

 keeps well during the winter. 

 Pkt., 20 cts. ; oz., 75 cts. ; lb., $8. 

 CELERY, Henderson's Half 

 Dwarf White. This variety 

 is increasing in favor with the 

 dm rket gardeners. When blanch- 

 ed is of a yellowish white, mak- 

 ing it very ornamental for the 

 table; is solid, having the nutty 

 flavor of the dwarf kinds, and of 

 more vigorous growth. Pkt., 10 

 cts.; oz., 60 cts.; lb., $6.5".
