MARBLEITEAD MAMMOTH DRUMHEAD CABBAGE. 



Marblehead Mammoth Drumhead. The largest Cabbage in the world. 



This (the Mammoth) is, without doubt, the largest variety of the Cab- 

 bage family in the world, being the result of the extreme of high culture. 

 In form this variety differs, the head being sometimes nearly hemispheri- 

 cal, at other times nearly flat. Under high culture it i* compact and hard. 

 It's size is indeed mammoth, ranging from that of a half-bushel measure up 

 to that of a two-bushel basket, and even larger. They have been grown, 

 and, when stripped of all waste leaves, could not be got into a two-bushel 



basket. Per pkt., 10 .

 weighing from twenty to thirty pounds, — and requiring only ordinary 



cultivation. The quality is excellent. Per pkt., 15
