HENDERSON’S 
NEW 
Unrivaled 
Lettuce 
SUCCEEDS AT ALL 
SEASONS 
EARLY, TENDER, CRISP 
and BUTTERY 
This is a new variety, and hag 
proved to be a very valuable acqui¬ 
sition to the Lettuce family. It is 
very early in maturing, being fit for 
use about the same time as Hender¬ 
son’s Big Boston, which it resembles 
somewhat in appeara,nce and in the 
size of the head. Henderson’s Un¬ 
rivaled Lettuce is pale green in 
color, shading to creamy white at 
the center of the head, which is 
formed of closely wrapped crispy 
leaves giving it great compactness 
of form. It has a pleasing buttery 
appearance, and we highly recom¬ 
mend this sort, feeling confident that 
it will become a prime favorite. (See 
engraving.) 
Price, 15c. 'pkt., 50c. oz., $1.50 
HENDERSON’S 
Tenderheart Lettuce 
A succulent, early head Lettuce. Every plant is uniformly 
perfect, nearly all head, with few outside leaves and most 
attractive in appearance. The heads are compactly formed 
of densely packed cream-colored heart leaves of fine quality, 
tender, crisp and sweet. Color of the outside leaves pale 
green, slightly tinged reddish-brown. It is not only very early 
and hardy but stands early summer heat well, and though 
it does not bolt to seed for two weeks after heading we do not 
recommend it for use during very hot weather. {See engrav - 
ing.) Price, 15c. pkt., 59c. oz., $1.50 l /i lb.
