BUNCOMBE OR CABBAGE COLLARDS —A 
cross between Georgia Collards and Charleston 
Wakefield cabbage, bred for the easy growth and 
hardiness of the collard and the flavor and heading 
qualities of the cabbage. It doesn’t winter-kill with 
ice and snow and stands hot weather as well. Heads are 
rounded, not as firm as cabbages but of delicious flavor. 
COLLARDS 
Collards are grown extensively in the southern states, but 
with proper care and cultivation can be successfully raised 
north of the Ohio river. 
PLANTING DIRECTIONS—1 oz. for 2,000 plants. 
Very similar to cabbage in regard to the culture, 
except that the plants do not have to he transplanted. 
GEORGIA SOUTHERN OR CREOLE— Collards 
are large Kale-like plants, extensively used in the 
South both for table and stock feeding. 
CORN SALAD 
A small, quick-growing plant used 
as a salad in the late fall or winter. 
Also as a substitute for lettuce and 
spinach. Plant in August for spring 
use. Early spring for fall use. 
LARGE SEEDED —The best variety 
for family use; makes delicious salad; 
used during the winter as substitute

Early Jersey Wakefield 
(listed on page six) 
WITLOOF —The principal merit of this 
variety consists in the width of the leaves 
and large ribs. When blanched it forms 
the vegetable which is known as witloof, 
and resembles a head of Cos Lettuce. 
CHINESE CABBAGE 
(Cultivate the same as other varieties of cabbage). 
PE-TSAI —This variety is different from the or¬ 
dinary cabbage, resembling the Cos Lettuce, with 
solid head and few outer leaves. Very productive, 
with blanched head and is in greater demand. 
CHI-HI-LI or CELERY CABBAGE— This va¬ 
riety has a long compact head which resembles 
celery in flavor when the outer leaves are re¬ 
moved. Makes an excellent salad, crisp and with 
a fine nutty flavor.

ket gardeners as the best late keeping
