Market Gardeners' Large Late Flat Dutch, 120 



A n For a large, heavy, hard, smooth-leaved, late-ripening Cabbage, no strain 



U.a;jf O. ig superior and few equal to this. The head is thick, broad, solid and 

 slightly rounded on the top, though the variety is what is termed a flathead. The 

 leaves extend well over the centre line of the head and fold down alternately, tightly 

 forming a compact head. The natural habit of the seeding plants is to develop thick, 

 short, stocky stems; but this quality is affected by the system of growth, for if the 

 seedlings are crowded in the bed or grown among weeds, or under the shade of a house, 

 fence or tree, they reach upward for air and light, resulting, in long, slim stalks, which 

 bad form of plants cannot be corrected by any subsequent culture. It is grown upon 

 our own farms, under our own personal daily oversight 



VOLGA. — Same as Stonehead, silvery -green, large, solid 



GREEN GLAZED.— A glossy, pea-green variety, long cultivated in the Southern States, 

 resisting the attacks of fleas, bugs and caterpillars better than others. A valuable quality. 



RED DUTCH. — Leaves red or purple; generally used for picklmg, but sometimes for boilmg. .

Three Savoy Cabbages. 



Landreths' Earliest Pointed 

 Savoy Cabbage, 85 days .— 



Nothing like it among the Savoy Cabbage, it being f^R^'^^'^W^/* ' i # 



weeks earlier than any of its Savoy class. Outside /s^ - a-s" M 

 leaves light yellow and much bloated. Heads com- % , * '« 



cal, yellowish-green, and very marrow-like. The ^'^'•7~<-^^ ^9 

 flavor is like that of the Cauliflower, and we 

 recommend it as a substitute where Cauliflower 

 heads cannot be grown. Every plant makes a 

 head, and it will be found a profitable sort under , , ,

GREEN CURLED SAVOY, 8o DAYS. — This is undoubtedly the finest type of Winter Cab- 

 bage. After having been frosted it boils like marrow, and is not surpassed even by the 

 Cauliflower in its best condition. The strain is not to be confounded with low-priced 

 imported seeds. It is a shy producer of seed, and consequently never plentiful... 3 00 1 00
