HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS.

HENDERSON'S 



Coreless Carrot. 



Although but recently distributed this highly 

 bred early carrot has already become very popular; 

 its combination of many good qualities certainly 

 justifying the preference given it. 



Henderson's Coreless excels all half long carrots 

 in earliness, productiveness, handsome appearance 

 and fine quality. The roots are of medium size — 

 6 to 7 inches long — the ideal for table use. In form 

 they are almost perfectly cylindrical with blunt 

 base, small tap root, small fine tops and a very 

 smooth skin. They run very uniform and even in 

 size and shape, pull easily and bunch well on account 

 of the small shoulder, but the crowning merit of 

 this variety is its superb quality. The flesh of 

 rich orange-red is very fine grained, tender through- 

 out, entirely free from the woody, yellow heart or 

 core so usual in most red fleshed carrots. The 

 flavor is also mild, sweet and delicious. 



Both for the home garden and for market, Hen- 

 derson's Coreless Carrot is perfection 



Price, 15c. oz., 40c. \ lb., $1.25 lb. 



Henderson's SELECTED DANVEKS CARROT. 



A handsome, half-long, stump-rooted Carrot of good size and of a rich, dark or- 

 ange color; it grows to a large size, is smooth, and the flesh very close in texture 

 with very little core and a small tap-root. It is a first-class Carrot for all soils; 

 under good cultivation it has yielded 25 to 30 tons per acre with the smallest lengthy 

 of root of any now grown, and is more easily harvested than long Carrots. Our 

 selected stock is specially grown for market gardeners, to whom it gives the best 

 satisfaction. (See cut.) Price, 15c. oz., 35c. \ lb., $1.00 lb. 

 For our cheaper strain of Danvers see page 36. 



" Your selected Danvers Carrol cannot be beaten, and I think it one of the best Carrots in existence; fine 

 shape, fine color, fine quality and fine yield." A. L. PAYNE, Cold Spring, N. Y. 



CHANTENAY HALF^LONG SCARLET CARROT. 



A short, thick, stump-rooted sort of handsome shape, very productive and 

 of fine quality. It is very largely grown for bunching and as an early basket sort. 

 It is remarkably even in shape and size; no sort equals it in this respect. For me- 

 dium early and main crop it is unexcelled. It is not recommended for winter storing. 

 {See cut.) Price, 10c. oz., 25c. J lb., 80c. lb.

HENDERSON'S NEW YORK MARKET CARROT. 



This Carrot, introduced by us, has become a standard variety. Its quick growth 

 makes it valuable for early bunching. It is handsome and symmetrical, of bright 

 orange color; flesh crisp, tender and sweet, almost coreless, unexcelled for bunching, 

 and as a basket sort it commands top prices, its attractive color and fine shape al- 

 ways giving it prominence. Price, 10c. oz., 25c. J lb., 70c. lb. 



HENDERSON'S INTERMEDIATE CARROT. 



The best main crop and late Carrot. It is most uniform in shape, long-tapenng, 

 heavy shouldered, and where the soil is favorable it will always grow clean and free 

 from side roots. The core is small and very tender, and there is no woody char- 

 acter at any stage of its growth. It is also entirely free from any coarse, rank flavor 

 and its yielding capacity is enormous, which, with its handsome color and fine ap- 

 pearance, makes it invaluable to truckers. The color is maintained right along 

 throughout the winter and they come out of the pits as bright and fresh as when 

 first dug. This makes it the best sort for winter storing. Price, 10c. oz., 25c. \ lb., 

 70c. lb. 



" I have bought my Carrol Seed from your house for several years, because it always has given me the highest 

 satisfaction:' CHAS. W. INGALLS, Watkins, N. Y. 



IMPROVED LONG ORANGE CARKOT. 



An improved strain of this popular variety for either garden or field culture, 

 roots averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches in diameter at the top; an enormous 

 yielder and a good keeper. Price, 10c. oz., 25c. J lb., 70c. lb. 



" Last season I raised Long Orange Carrots from seeds purchased from you that measured 1 4 feet in length 

 and 4 inches in diameter." N. E. DAVIS, Sheffield, Mass.
