SPINACH 
CONTINUED 
NOBEL GIANT LEAVED A new variety of the Viroflay type, but superior. Also called Gaudry Long Stand¬ 
ing. It is the best of the so-called smooth-leaved types. The leaves are very thick, rather smooth, rounded, 
and of great size. Although a very quick grower, it stands well before going to seed. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 10c; 
lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $18.00. 
JULIANA This is of the Long Season type, having a large, beautiful crumpled leaf. The color is a very rich dark green. Juliana 
is remarkable for its uniform growth, and because it stands hot weather without bolting to seed longer than other sorts. Fine 
for either spring or fall planting. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
RESISTO A new spinach variety, resulting from a cross of 
Gaudry with King of Denmark. Produces a large plant 
of fine dark green color, the leaves somewhat savoyed or 
crumpled. Stands shipping well, is slow to go to seed, 
very resistant to disease and heat. Round seeded. Oz., 
5c; J4 lb., 15c; lb., 40c; 100 lbs., $35.00. 
KING OF DENMARK The leaves are large, rounded, somewhat blis¬ 
tered and deep green in color. A rather slow growing variety, but 
remains in good condition a week after some varieties have shot 
to seed. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $20.00. 
Nobel Giant Leaved 
MONSTROUS VIROFLAY Leaves thick, broad 
and nearly round. This variety is suitable 
for either fall or spring sowing. It is one 
of the older varieties, of the Round Thick 
Leaf type, and not equal to Nobel. Oz., 5c; 
lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $18.00. 
MUSTARD-SPINACH, so-called, is listed on page 35 under the name of Tendergreen Mustard. 
ROUND THICK LEAF An old standard variety, 
still grown in some localities. We recom¬ 
mend the use .of Nobel Giant Leaved, which 
is a far better spinach in every way. Oz., 
5c; 14 lb., 10c; lb., 25c; 100 lbs., $18.00. 
NEW ZEALAND (Tetragonia ex 
pansa) Not a true spinach, un¬ 
like spinach in that it thrives 
during hot weather and in almost 
any soil, rich or poor. The ten¬ 
der shoots are of excellent quality 
and may be cut throughout the summer. The 
plant becomes very large and spreading, with 
comparatively small leaves. Plant three or 
four seeds in hills two feet apart each way. 
Germination is very slow, and can be hastened 
somewhat by soaking in warm water for 24 
hours. Oz., 5c; J4 lb., 15c; lb., 35c; 100 lbs., $30.00.
