HENDERSON’S 
SNOWBALL CAULIFLOWER 
(ILLUSTRATED IIS COLOR ON THE OPPOSITE PAGE) 
The Cauliflower of Character—It Heads Where Others Fail 
EXCELLENT FOR FORCING—INDISPENSABLE FOR SPRING CROP—INCOMPARABLY THE BEST FOR FALL 
Beyond all question, Henderson’s Snowball is the one perfect 
Cauliflower for the American gardener. There is none to equal 
it in value for forcing under glass for a winter crop,, for which 
it is especially adapted by reason of its compact, upright habit, 
quick growth, and sure-heading quality. 
Henderson’s Snowball Cauliflower, grown from seed sown 
under glass in February and transplanted after frost, will produce 
perfect heads of snowy whiteness in the open ground by June 1st. 
In most sections of the United States, the best and most satis¬ 
factory crop is grown from seed sown outdoors about May 20th 
and transplanted during July, so that the plants make their best 
growth during the cooler months. For this crop, Henderson’s 
Snowball is unsurpassed. 
For all purposes and at all seasons, it has become indispensable. 
Critical market growers use it in ever-increasing quantities, 
while the amateur and private gardener find it equally valuable 
at all seasons, owing to its reliability in heading, its strong, 
vigorous habit, and the whiteness of its perfectly-formed flowers* 
It is without doubt, the ideal Cauliflower, perfect in size, in 
reliability, in color, and in quality. 
Although Cauliflower may be grown as easily as Cabbage, 
many, through lack of knowledge of some essentials, are liable 
to failure. We urge those who are not familiar with its cultiva¬ 
tion to read carefully the pamphlet we have prepared on Cabbage 
and Cauliflower growing, wherein we have tried to point the way 
to success. We may say here briefly, that success depends on 
growing a large plant, and that as Cauliflower is essentially a 
cool weather plant, this cannot be done in the hot summer 
months; therefore, the earliest outdoor crop must be grown from 
seed sown under glass in February, so that the crop will mature 
by June 1st; for fall use, it should be sown late in May, so that 
the best development may be made during the cooler weather 
of September and October. (See Colored illustration opposite.
