SPINACH (Cent.) 
Extra Early Dark Green Bloomsdale (New). A better and 
darker strain of the well known early Bloomsdale. Market 
gardeners are very much impressed with this attractive 
selection. Its darker color gives the plants a fresh appear¬ 
ance for a longer time after being cut than ordinary 
Bloomsdale . 
Viking Spinach. We are sure this new spinach will have an im¬ 
portant place in home and commercial gardens. Plant re¬ 
sembles Nobel Giant Leaf in growth. The leaves grow very 
large, are more crumpled, darker green, quite tender and 
of excellent quality. This spinach grows so fast that it is 
ready before most other kinds. It is so large that in fact, 
you can start to cut it when it’s only about % grown. 
When fully grown it attains an enormous size but still re¬ 
tains its fine tender quality. This is a long standing variety 
too .
