HENDERSON S NEW 
T ENDERHEART | ETTUCE. 
A grand, new, large, early head Lettuce. Every 
plant uniformly perfect, about 10 inches across, 
and nearly all head with but few outside leaves. 
The large round heads are compactly formed of 
waxy-cream’ colored heart leaves of splendid sub¬ 
stance and of extra fine quality, tender, crisp, succu¬ 
lent and sweet; attractive and appetizing when 
served. Tenderheart is not only a very early and 
hardy Lettuce, but it stands early summer heat 
splendidly, and does not bolt to seed for two weeks 
after it is fully headed up. ' Color of the outside 
leaves pale green, slightly tinged reddish-brown.

Hnew lettuce, Immensity. 
The Largest Head Lettuce in the World! Often 
4 to 5 feet in circumference. A luxuriant grower, 
==. .consequently tender, sweet and crisp. x= 
A gigantic Lettuce, with an enormous, solid head. 
The plant is fully 18 inches in diameter, while the 
head proper is proportionately large. It is one of 
the slowest to run to seed that we have ever seen, 
and maintains that crispness of texture and sweet¬ 
ness of flavor that will surely make it popular. It 
is an excellent variety for early sowing, as it has 
good heat-resisting qualities which carry it safely 
through the most trying seasons. While not early, 
it may be safely relied on for a midseason crop, 
when most varieties are badly affected by heat.

LETTUCE. 
THE KING OF MAIN 
CROP HEAD LETTUCES. 
Immense Heads as 
Solid as a Cabbage. 
Blanches Beautifully; 
Crisp, Tender 
and free from Bitterness. 
It produces immense heads, 
often 15 and 16 inches across, 
and weighing enormously. The 
interior is beautifully blanched, 
creamy-white, crisp, tender 
and delicious, being absolutely 
free from any trace of bitter¬ 
ness. It is a very large, ro¬ 
bust-growing variety, rooting 
deeply, resisting hot, dry 
weather, very slow to run to 
seed and a sure header under 
most trying conditions. The 
outer color is of a distinct 
apple-green. We introduced 
this variety a number of years 
ago, and it has been exten¬ 
sively grown by our customers 
in almost all sections of the 
country, from whom we re¬ 
ceive most gratifying reports. 
As a standard main summer 
crop, hot-weather Lettuce it 
is in every way desirable and 
has no equal, but is not recom¬ 
mended for forcing. {See cut.)
