Henderson s Emerald Parsley. 
A distinct and handsome variety of quick, 
robust growth forming compact, ornamental 
plants, densely furnished with strong-stemmed 
graceful leaves, finely cut, most beautifully 
curled, and of that brilliant emerald-green 
color so highly attractive when used for 
garnishing. The flavor of the leaves is 
also unusually rich and aromatic, ren¬ 
dering this variety of special value where 
used for flavoring, in sauces, dressing, 
etc., either when fresh or dried. (See

CHINESE GIANT PEPPER. 
This monstrous fruiting variety averages 12 to 15 inches in 
circumference, and, notwithstanding its immense size, it is very 
early and prolific; the stock}', well-branched plants, about 2 feet 
high, carry so many peppers that in places they seem bunched 
together. The flesh is thick, tender, mild, sweet, and unexcelled 
when sliced as salad, or for stuffing for “mangoes.” When ripe 
the surface is of a brilliant glossy scarlet. {Seecut.) Price, 15c. 
pkt., 65c. oz., $1.75 34 lb*) $6.50 lb. 
“ My Chinese Giant Peppers took the prize at the fair this fall. "

HENDERSON'S 
H CROWN PARSNIP 
This is a highly improved type, 
producing uniformly large and hand¬ 
some roots of stocky form, heavy at 
the shoulder, well rounded, gradually 
tapering to the base, so that they are 
easily dug, and if grown in properly 
pulverized soil, the roots will be 
smooth and free from wrinkles and 
side roots. The flesh is white, of fine 
texture, free from core and stringi¬ 
ness, and especially fine-flavored, 
cooking tender, sweet and rich, ren¬ 
dering it one of the finest of table 
vegetables for winter use. The roots 
may remain in the ground all winter, 
being hardy, or some may be dug 
late in the fall and stored in sand or 
soil, so that they can be gotten at 
easily when the ground is frozen. 
Frost improves their quality. This 
parsnip is the heaviest cropper of all 
and we recommend it for both gar¬ 
den and field culture. Price, 5c. pkt., 
10c. oz., 20c. 34 lb., 60c. lb. 
“ This may be the largest parsnip story you 
ever heard, but it’s true. 1 purchased seed of 
your Hollow Crown last Spring and raised big 
ones in majority; the largest weighed a trifle over 
5 pounds with leaves all off. I will add that it 
was solid and cooked up tender and delicious.”
