SPINACH 
CONTINUED 
OLD DOMINION A new blight resistant 
sort, a cross between Blight Resistant 
Savoy and King of Denmark, by the 
Virginia Experiment Station. The 
leaves are a dark bluish green deeply 
bloated, thick and well rounded. Sup¬ 
erior to Blight Resistant Savoy in that 
it is slow to seed. Stands shipping well. 
Is best adapted to sowing in late fall 
for an early spring crop; not recom¬ 
mended for a fall or mid-winter crop, 
however, as it is a slow grower. Oz., 
5c; y^\b., 10c; lb., 35c; 100 lbs., $30.00. 
WOODRUFF'S HOT WEATHER A variety 
resembling Victoria in general appearance, 
but larger and somewhat rounder leaved. It 
is ready soon after the earliest varieties and 
will stand without bolting two weeks longer. 
Hot weather has little effect on this spinach, 
it being superior to King of Denmark in this 
respect. Oz., 5c; lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 
lbs., $20.00. 
Harlem Market Spinach 
JULIANA This is of the Long Season type, having a large, beautiful crumpled leaf. The color is a very rich dark green. 
Juliana is remarkable for its rapid, uniform growth, and because it stands hot weather without bolting to seed longer than 
other sorts. Fine for either spring or fall planting. Oz., 5c; 14 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
NEW ZEALAND (Tetragonia expansa) Not a true spinach, unlike spinach in that it thrives during hot weather 
and in almost any soil, rich or poor. The tender shoots are of excellent quality and may be cut throughout the 
summer. The plant becomes very large and spreading, with comparatively small leaves. Plant three or 
four seeds in hills two feet apart each way. Germination is very slow, and can be hastened somewhat by 
soaking in warm water for 24 hours. Oz., 5c; lb., 15c; lb., 40c; 100 lbs., $35.00. 
HARLEM MARKET As compared 
with Reselected Bloomsdale Sa¬ 
voy, Harlem Market is earlier, 
quicker growing, hardier, and re¬ 
markably resistant to blight. It 
is the earliest, quickest growing- 
sort, and resembles Reselected 
Bloomsdale Savoy in appearance. 
It is very hardy and will stand 
cold and unfavorable weather in 
cases where round-seeded spin- 
aches will rot and wilt. It grows 
so quickly that it can be cut and 
oft the ground before other sorts. 
Prickly seeded. We recommend 
it for use at those seasons when 
growers would ordinarily use Re¬ 
selected Bloomsdale or Blight Re¬ 
sistant Savoy. Sold Out. 
KING OF DENMARK The leaves are 
large, rounded, somewhat blistered and 
deep green in color. A rather slow 
growing variety, but remains in good 
condition a week after some varieties 
have shot to seed. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 
10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00.
