MELON 



(Greenhouse, or Frame) 



Veitch's Eminence. 



Award of Merit from the Royal 

 Horticultural Society. TlnV ix- 

 cec-<iiiisly title sec(ilin.n AkUm \\:!s 

 raised :it the Royal (lardens, 

 Wiiidst)r, from a cross l)etwcen tlie 

 green-Heslied " Sliainroek " and 

 Hero of Lockitise; white flesli. 

 The color may be described as in- 

 termediate between the two 

 parents, and tlie llesh, which is 

 moreover of <;reat depth, has also 

 an attractive tinjje of orange, giv- 

 ing promise of a delicate flavor, 

 wliich is fully borne out when the 

 fruit is tasted. The appearance of 

 the fruit is excellent, being of a 

 medium size ;ind beautifully net- 

 ted, and although chielly remark- 

 ablefor its splendid tablequalities, 

 will be found e(|ually valuable for 

 exhibition, and can be recom- 

 mended as early antl distinct, and 

 well worthy of a trial. The plant, 

 which is of a very robust constitu- 

 tion, sets its fruit freely. Pkt. 

 50 cts. and 75 cts. 



BEAN 



(Green Stringleas) 



Sutton's Masterpiece. 



Introduced by Sutton & Sons in 

 1910, and has proved to be a dis- 

 tinct advance .on varieties previ- 

 ously grown. The comparative 

 trials in their experimental 

 grounds leave no room for doubt 

 as to its superiority. The plant is 

 robust in constitution, unusually- 

 prolific, and the l<5ng pods are 

 straight, handsome and tender. As 



a very quick grower Sutton's Masterpiece will be a valuable addition 

 to the varieties adapted for pot culture. 



Mr. William Duckham, superintendent to Mrs. D. Willis James, 

 "Onunda," Madison, N. J., and Mr. William Longland, superin- 

 tendent to J. L. Hutchinson, Esq., Lake Geneva, Wis., tried this 

 variety last year, and we are listing it upon their high recommenda- 

 tion. Pkt. 15 cts., pt. 60 cts., qt. $1.

LETTUCE 

 Burpee's Earliest Way- 



ahead. ^ ^ l i ^ ^ t Wayahead 



' shows a remarkable 

 combination of earliness, firm- 

 heading character, handsome ap- 

 pearance and fine qn:ility. Both in 

 coldframesearly in the sj)ring and 

 in the open ground, — in spring, 

 summer and early fall months, — 

 it has proved to be not only the 

 very earliest and surest heading of 

 all early lettuces we have ever 

 grown, but also of the very finest 

 quality at all seasons. Thousands 

 of satisfied planters are most en- 

 thusiastic in praise of Karliest 

 VVayahead Lettuce. 



Burpee's Wayahead is not only 

 earlier than May King, Nansen, 

 and other choice extra early va- 

 rieties, but the heads are also 

 larger in size and more tightly 

 folded. The outer leaves are a 

 light green, while all the inner 

 leaves of the head are nicely 

 blanched to a rich buttery yellow 

 tint. Earliest Wayahead stands a 

 longer time before running to 

 seed than other early head variety. 

 Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 30 cts., l{\h. 85 cts.,

RADISH 



Sakurajima (Mammoth Ja- 



1 pan. The largest 



sort in cultivation. Sow early in 

 rich soil. In Japan it grows as 

 much as 21 inches long and 43 

 inches in circumference. Thin 

 well to allow of proper develop- 

 ment. Jkt. 10 cts., oz. 25 cts., 

 !ilb. 75 cts., lb. $2.25. 



EARLY CABBAGE 



Copenhagen Market. 



This su- 

 perb new 



Cabbage created quite a sensation dur- 

 ing the past season. It is undoubtedly 

 without a rival as the finest large, 

 round-headed, early Cabbage 

 in cultivati<jn. The type is thor- 

 oughly fixed (this being a great 

 consideration to gardeners). The 

 heads average about ten pounds 

 each in weight, are very solid, 

 with small core and of fine 

 quality. It matures as early 

 as Charleston W.ikefield, 

 and will give a nuich heavier 

 yield than that popular va- 

 riety. The plant is short- 

 stemmed, the heads being 

 produced almost on the 

 ground level. The leaves 

 are light green, rather small, saucer- 

 shaped, and always tightly folded. 

 The plants, therefore, can be set closer 

 than is usual with varieties of similar 

 size. Pkt. IOC, Jioz. 40c., oz. $1.25. 



Enkhuizen Glory. Large early sort; white 

 and very solid. Pro- 

 duces fine, ball-shaped heads, and coml)ines large 

 size with earliness as no other early Cabbage 

 does. A fine market sort. One of the best. Pkt. 

 10 cts., 02. 25 cts., }<lb. 75c., lb. $2.50. 



Raphanus caudatus l?*"?*'^; ^^^'^ " 



Radish). Has edible seed pods; used 



raw or pickled. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 50 cts. 



FRAME, or GREENHOUSE CUCUMBERS 



Sutton's King George. This new variety is the 

 — — result of a highly suc- 

 cessful cross between Matchless and Telegraph, combining 



the fine quality of the former 

 with the prolific habit of the 

 latter. This cucumber was 

 exhibited at the Royal Hor- 

 ticultural Society's Great 

 Temple Show on May i, 

 and attracted the marked 

 attention of a large number 

 of visitors. We have every 

 confidence that this new 

 \ .iriety will become an im- 

 mediate favorite with our 

 customers. Pkt. 50 cts. and 

 75 cts. 



Sutton*s Every-Day. 



Raised in the Royal Gar- 

 dens, Windsor, and it is 

 no exaggeration to say that 

 in the wonderful crop it 

 produces this variety has no 

 rival. The plant sets freely 

 at all seasons of the year, 

 hence the name Fruit of good length, 

 deep green in color, almost smooth, and 

 of first-rate flavor. First-class Certificate, 

 Royal Horticultural Society. Pkt. 50 cts. 

 and 75 cts.
