ITALIAN GREEN SPROUTING—This vigorous plant is en¬ 
tirely different from the white heading sorts. Cultivated 
like cabbage, it bears a succession of sprouting heads which, 
if kept cut, will be replaced by others for 8 or 10 weeks.

deep green buds. Many think this vegetable superior in 
flavor to cauliflower.
