GENERAL LIST OF VEGETABLE PLANTS. 
Several seasons ago we added to our list of specialties, the growing of vegetable plants; with each 
season our demand has so increased that we have been obliged to put a larger area under glass for the pur- 
pose of forwarding the plants for the benefit of our customers wishing to plant early. 
On most of the varieties listed below we have grown our own seeds realizing the importance to our 
customers of obtaining the very best to be had, many seeds have been greatly improved by saving seed 
from the finest specimens of vegetables. We can safely say our plant establishment is the most complete 
on the coast.

NO. 400 
We offer for sale for the first time plants of Henderson’s New No. 400 Tomato. Seed of this Tomato was offered for sale 
for the first time last season by Peter Henderson & Oo. In small packets, and prize of $260 offered to the person that would 
select the most suitable name for it. We purchased some of the seed from original stock and have given the Tomato a tbor. 
ough test along with many other varieties. Our opinion is, that it is the largest perfect shaped Tomato extant. Fruit Is of 
immense size, symmetrical in shape, many specimens grown by us weighed nearly two pounds. In color it is of a handsome 
carmine when ripe; vines vigorous and enormously productive. This Tomato is a decided novelty and cannot fail to give 
entire satisfaction. 
IMPROVED SACRAMENTO FAVORITE. Enough has been said of this Tomato in former catalogues issued by us, so that It 
will not be necessary for U8 to enter into details. While it is not a novelty by any means, we wish to call special attention to 
It. We have improved this Tomato by selecting the finest specimens each year for seed and our improved strain, offered this 
season is the finest we have ever grown. Fruit is blood-red, thickly-meated, solid and perfectly smooth. This is the finest 
Tomato grown for canning or for general use, Henderson’s $400, $2 00 per 100. Improved Sacramento Favorite, list prices
