SPINACH

NOBEL GIANT LEAVED A new variety of the Viroflay type, but superior. Also called Gaudry Long Stand¬ 
ing. It is the best of the so-called smooth-leaved types. The leaves are very thick, rather smooth, rounded, 
and of great size. Although a very quick grower, it stands well before going to seed. Oz., 5c; J4 lb.. 10c; 
lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
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 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; J4 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
Nobel Giant Leaved 
WOODRUFF'S HOT WEATHER A variety resembling 
Victoria in general appearance, but larger and somewhat 
rounder leaved. It is ready soon after the - earliest va¬ 
rieties 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; 
M lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
KING OF DENMARK The leaves are large, rounded, somewhat blis¬ 
tered 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; ^ lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
Old Dominion 
NEW ZEALAND (Tetragonia ex¬ 
panse! Not a true spinach, un¬ 
like spinach in that it thrives 
during hot weather and in almost 
any soil, rich or poor. The ten¬ 
der 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 
ROUND THICK LEAF An old standard variety, 
still grown in some localities. We recom¬ 
mend the use of Nobel Giant Leaved, which 
is a far better spinach in every way. Oz., 
5c; ^ lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
MONSTROUS VIROFLAY Leaves thick, broad 
and nearly round. This variety is suitable 
for either fall or spring sowing. It is one 
of the older varieties, of the Round Thick 
Leaf type, and not equal to Nobel. Oz., 5c; 
J4 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
somewhat by soaking in warm wafer for 24 
hours. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 15c; lb., 40c; 100 lbs., $35.00. 
MUSTARD-SPINACH, so-called, is listed on page 35 under the name of Tendergreen Mustard.
