Henderson’s Coreless Carrot Henderson’s S c i™ g Danvers Carrot 
Henderson’s Intermediate Carrot 
A large, handsome, main crop variety, between half-long and long, 
with an enormous yielding capacity in deep soils. The root, 10 or 
12 inches in length, is very broad at the neck, 2 to 3 inches through, 
and tapers evenly to the small tap-root. It grows smoothly and 
uniformly and has rich reddish-orange flesh, tender, sweet and en¬ 
tirely free from woody coarseness even at maturity. 
As a table Carrot it is unsurpassed; for truckers its fine color and 
appearance render it salable, while as a field Carrot its great yield 
makes it valuable. Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 85c. 34 lb., $3.00 lb.

The Finest Early Table Variety Grown 
Handsome, Meltingly Tender and Sweet 
This Carrot, introduced by us, has proven one of the most uni¬ 
versally popular varieties ever sent out. People who never liked 
Carrots before arc delighted with the melting tenderness and sweet, 
mild flavor of Henderson’s Coreless. . . 
It is a half-long cylindrical Carrot, blunt-pointed, with a sma.l 
tap-root and small top. They run very uniform in shape and size, 
6 to 7 inches long by lp£ inches through; clean skinned, smooth, 
easily pulled and keep well. The flesh is of fine texture, entirely de¬ 
void of stringiness, coarseness and woody heart, or core. I he color 
of the flesh is the rich red-orange so attractive when served. Hender¬ 
son’s Coreless excels all other half-long Carrots in earliness without- 
being inferior to them in productiveness. Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. oz., 
$1.20 M lb., $4.00 lb. 
“ Previous to eating Henderson’s Coreless Carrots I did not care for that 
kind of vegetable, but we raised Coreless last year, and having learned their 
flavor, I cannot get enough of them.” _

Oxheart or Guerande Carrot 
An excellent sort for the private garden, being especially valuable 
for spring and early summer crop. Its short, stocky character gives 
it great value on shallow soils, where the larger varieties will not 
succeed and the compact growing leaves allow close planting. The 
quality is excellent; it remains tender long after maturity, and may 
be used while very small for soups, etc. It is excellent for growing 
in frames. Price, 10c. pkt., 30c. oz., 85c. 34 lb., $3.00 lb. 
(Shown in colors on opposite pope) 
A handsome half-long, cylindrical, stump-rooted Carrot of good size 
and of a rich, dark orange color; it grows to a large size; is smooth, and 
the flesh very close in texture with very little core. It is a first-class 
Carrot for all soils and has yielded 25 to 30 tons per acre, with the 
smallest length of root of any now grown. It is more easily harvested 
than the longer types and is excellent to store for winter, for stock 
or table use. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 60c. 34 lb., $2.00 lb. 
Cliantenay Carrot 
This splendid Carrot belongs to the half-long “stump” or blunt- 
rooted type, but differs from all others of this class by its greater 
girth, bulk and consequent yield. It averages (> to 7 inches in length, 
is broad at the neck, narrowing gradually to the round, blunt base, 
therefore is easily harvested. The flesh, almost free from core, is of 
rich orange-red and of the finest 
table quality; fine-grained, 
tender, juicy and 
delicately flavor¬ 
ed. (See engrav- 
ing.) Price, 
10c. pkt., 20c. 
oz., 60c. 
lb., $2.00 
lb. 
Improved Long Orange Carrot 
An improved strain of this popular variety for either garden or 
field culture, roots averaging 12 inches in length and 3 inches in 
diameter at the top; an enormous yielder and a good keeper. Price, 
5c. pkt., 15c. oz., 50c. 34 lb*, $1.50 lb. 
Henderson’s Succession Cabbage 
(Shown in colors on plate opposite) 
THE MOST CELEBRATED SECOND-EARLY VARIETY IN CULTIVATION 
The Finest Cabbage for General Use. The Delight of the Amateur. 
HENDERSON’S SUCCESSION CABBAGE we consider one of our 
most valuable contributions to horticulture. 
It stands today unrivaled as a second-early or main-crop sort, 
and few vegetables have held their place in public esteem for so 
many years. The heads become solid long before they are fully 
grown, so that though immature, heads of satisfactory size may be 
cut long before it is at its best. This quality, combined with its 
ability to stand well without splitting, makes it available for use 
over a longer season than any variety we know, and the best to 
use where only one sort is grown. 
We introduced this variety in 1888, and its appearance attracted 
instant attention. Since then there have been many attempts 
ar imitating it, but the enormous increase of our sales, and the 
periodically unsatisfied demand for our stock, give testimony to 
the acknowledged superiority of Henderson’s Succession over all 
would-be competitors. It stands today a money maker for the 
trucker, and the delight of the amateur. 
It is a second-early variety coming in immediately after the first- 
early sorts. It greatly exceeds in size any variety in its season. 
Without doubt it is the best second-early Cabbage in existence, and 
is so finely bred, so free from coarse veining of the leaves, that, in 
addition to its reliability and sure cropping quality, it possesses all 
the fine qualities of the very best earlier varieties. Price, 10c. pkt., 
Enormous Heads of Exceedingly Tender Quality 
HENDERSON’S SUCCESSION CABBAGE RECEIVES 
NOTHING BUT PRAISE WHEREVER GROWN 
“Growers of wide experience regard Henderson’s Succession Cabbage as the 
most important production in the cabbage line, and the surest to produce a crop. 
It is a tradewinner for the market gardener, which is the reason it continues to 
grow in popular favor.” W E VAIL, Yorktown Heights, N. Y. 
“J have had three years’ experience with Henderson’s Succession and I have 
found it by far the best all around Cabbage I ever planted. It is a rapid grower, 
very hardy, and ivill head at least 10 per cent, better than any other variety I 
know. It makes a beautiful head, and surpasses all others I know in flavor. 
A certain merchant in our town gained quite a number of new customers one 
season simply because he handled Henderson’s Succession. By time of sowing 
seed and planting you can make early, medium and late of it.” 
DR. E. A. LEE, Jennings, Louisiana. 
” I used your cabbage seed for the first lime last year. The Succession Cab¬ 
bage were simply great, hundreds of heads weighing 15 and 20 pounds, and one 
that I petted a little for show purposes weighed 29 K pounds.” 
B. II. DORWIN, Bainbridge, N. Y. 
“/ used to grow your Succession Cabbage years ago in Georgia and have 
never found anything here as good, so I atn ordering some.” 
A. S. DENIIAM, St. Augustine, Fla. 
“ Henderson’s Succession Cabbage Seed I find is the best variety I have ever 
planted.” A.J. HAWSEY, Clinton, la. 
“ Henderson's Succession is the finest Cabbage on earth. I had them all 
winter, in fact up to April 15 th, stored in cold cellar.” 
IV. L. EVERIT, Jr., Wellsville, N. Y.

NOTF — This P eerIess variety is so well known and so much sought after, that many firms are offering A “SUCCESSION” 
t —1 CABBAGE. We have tested many of these and find some entirely untrue and others of inferior strains. Be sure to 
get our highly bred and selected type, which is procurable only direct from us.—PETER HENDERSON & CO.
