Burpee’s Cabbage —Continued 
Chinese or 
Celery Cabbage 
Chinese Cabbage may be served like Lettuce, or, when 
shredded, makes a delicious cole slaw. Boiled, it is far 
more palatable than ordinary Cabbage. Where summers 
are cool, it may be sown in spring, but in the vicinity of 
Philadelphia seeds sown early in August have proved to 
give the best results. Makes full-size heads in 55 to 70 
days after sowing. May be stored for about two months. 
Ask for free cultural directions.

resistant” group and has become a foremost 
variety in sections where this disease prevents 
growing of non-resistant Cabbage. It has been 
developed from the famous Danish Ballhead but 
requires about 10 days longer to come to maturity. 
The plants are larger than Ballhead, and where 
conditions are favorable, will produce a heavier 
yield per acre. When fully mature the heads 
are sometimes slightly flattened on top. Pkt. 150; 
oz. 450; 4 ozs. $1.35; y 2 lb. $2.45; lb. $4.50;
