summer and Autumn, and the plants carried over 
the Winter for planting out in Spring.

should be sown very early in the Spring and marketed 
in July and August. This vegetable bears a suc¬

50 to 100 buds resembling miniature Cabbage 
heads. The leaves composing these heads resemble 
Savoy Cabbage in their crumpled texture and also 
in their color. The heads or buds, from 1 to 2 inches 
in diameter, form one of the most delicious garden 
vegetables, only equaled by the Cauliflower. 
Long Island Improved—90 Days

vegetables. Very choice tall stalks, 50 to 100 large 
buds, one inch in diameter. The development of 
the buds can be hastened and enlarged by cutting 
away ten or more leaves from the stalk when three- 
quarters grown. Pkt., .06; oz., .30; \ lb., .75. 
WHAT THE MATURITY FIGURES MEAN 
Throughout the vegetable section of the catalog, 
figures representing the days to maturity follow 
immediately the names of the individual varieties. 
These represent the average days required from the 
planting of the seed to the harvest of the crop. 
They are particularly valuable for comparison as 
to the approximate maturity of various types of the 
same vegetable. Weather conditions and localities, 
however, obviously alter the exact number of days 
required.
