BROCCOLI, ECLIPSE (CATTELL’S). 
The hardicstj and latest white Broccoli in cultivation. Awarded the First Prize at the Intel - 
national Horticultural Exhibition, South Kensington, May, 1866. 
The following notice of the above is taken from the Gardeners' Chronicle, June 3, 1865 ; — “The 
specimens of your Eclipse Eroceoli were very fine, the heads large and compact, the texture delicate, 
and the flavour excellent. Those qualities, together with the late season at which it comes into use— 
between the ordinary late Brocoolis and Cauliflowers— and its extreme hardiness, which you say is 
equal to a Cabbage, combine to make it a very useful variety.” See also Gardeners’ Chronicle, June 
9th, 1866, page 540 ; — “ The heads in question were good in colour, tender, and excellent.” This 
refers to some fine heads sent to the Editor, as late as the 5th of June. 
Price 1.5. 6d. per pachet. 
CABBAGE, FEARNOUGHT. 
A hybrid between the Earli/ Dwarf Cabbage and Hearting Borecole. It is of dwarf compact 
habit, and very hardy, having stood the last severe winter better than any other of the Brassica 
family. If sown iu March, it commences to turn in the following January, and when the heads are 
removed, it sprouts very freely. The Editor of the Gardeners’ Chronicle thus writes of it “ A useful 
Cabbage,’ with somewhat curly purplish-tinted leaves, and small open yellowish hearts; when 
cooked, they were tender, and the flavour agreeable.”
