COLLARDS 
Sow V4 pound of seed in seed-bed to plant an acre, or plant pound of seed per acre in field 
This is a tall, loose-leaved, kale-like plant, and an old-time standard for winter “greens” all over the South. 
Largely grown in home gardens and by truckers for markets as “Cabbage Bunch.” 
Culture. About the same as for cabbage. May be started in seed-beds or planted direct in field, spavin# the 
plants 2 to 3 feet each way. Can be planted every month in the year in Florida. This vegetable should be in 
every family garden as it is very hardy and will furnish an abundance’of “greens” when other vegetables are 
gone. Collards will also make fine green feed for chickens and cows. 
Prices quoted are Postpaid. 
True Georgia Whitehead. < 60 da y s -) An oId - 
- time favorite. Stands 
all sorts of adverse conditions and will make a good 
crop when other vegetables would fail. Very hardy to 
cold, and will stand usual winters without injury all 
over Florida. The plants grow to a height of 2 to 3 feet, 
and form large, loose, open heads or a cluster of suc¬ 
culent leaves with a rather long stem. Pkt. 5c; )ilb. 
15c; lb. 50c. 
Cabbage Collard. ( 60 days-) This Collard is claimed 
-to be a cross between Georgia 
Collard and Charleston Wakefield Cabbage. It is of 
very easy culture, and hardy, but has the flavor and 
heading qualities of cabbage. It does not winter-kill, 
even in northern Florida, and it also stands hot weath¬ 
er. Does not grow as tall as Georgia Collard. The 
heads are not as firm as cabbage, but are very tender 
and of ideal flavor. Pkt. 5c; ^4 lb. 20c; lb. 60c.
