Tiiif’c TTipmlirprl NnrfnlL A delicious vegetable that should be 
1 ait s inoroorea iNorioiK more universally grown . it combines the 
mellow flavor of the Cauliflower with the nutty tange of Celery, and is consid¬ 
ered by many superior to Cauliflower, as it has a more delicate flavor. It differs 
from the Valentine Broccoli in that it is much smaller, and the head is green 
instead of white. The plant grows about 2 feet high, producing a medium sized 
central head. After the central head has been cut, numerous sturdy shoots 
develop, each sprout terminating in a small green head. There are numerous 
stocks of Broccoli, many of which are not worth planting. Our stock has been 
bred to produce the largest central head, and is preferred by critical market 
gardeners, as it commands the highest prices on all markets. Pkt. 10 cts., oz.
