BUCHANAN’S VEGETABLE PLANTS 
Ail prices on this page are post paid and must be paid in advance, as we do not ship plants C. O. D. either by Parcel Post or Express. 
The growing, packing and shipping of plants, bulbs and roots is governed by weather conditions. We grow millions of plants; 
get our prices when wanted in large quantities. We cannot send plants by parcel post in extremely hot weather.

ASPARAGUS ROOTS AND SEED 
CULTURE—Sow seed thinly in drills 1 foot apart, early in the spring or fall, after soaking seed in 
warm water for an hour. Use a rich, well-worked light soil and when well up, thin plants to 1 inch apart 
and cultivate often until the plants are a year old. Transplant or set out the roots in permanent bed, using 
the richest soil you have, thoroughly prepared and worked very deep. Set roots 4 inches deep and 18 inches 
apart in rows 4 to 6 feet apart.

variety of asparagus now known. Pkt., 10c; oz., 15c; Vi lb., 30c; 1 lb., 75c

time in having your bed ready for cutting. Doz., 40c; 25, 60c; 50, 75c; 100, $1.50

BUCHANAN’S GENUINE FROST-PROOF CABBAGE PLANTS 
For Wholesale Prices—Not Prepaid—See Yellow Sheet in Center of Catalogue 
You will have very early cabbage by setting Buchanan’s Frost Proof Cabbage Plants. We 
begin shipping them January 1st, and continue through January, February, March and April. 
BUCHANAN’S GENUINE FROST-PROOF CABBAGE PLANTS will be somewhat wilted 
and have a hard, stunted appearance when you receive them. Do not let this disappoint you, 
as it is the natural way they grow. Plant them; the crop will not be disappointing. They are 
the genuine Frost-Proof Plants. Varieties: Early Jersey and Large Charleston Wakefield, Suc¬ 
cession, Copenhagen Market and Early Flat Dutch. Set cabbage in rows 30 inches apart, 20 
inches in row, 10,000 to 14,000 to acre. All prices on cabbage plants are subject to crop condi¬ 
tions and market changes. Prices— 100, 40c; 200, 70c; 500, $1.25; 1,000, $2.25; post paid 
BUCHANAN’S BERMUDA ONION PLANTS—Set in rows 24 inches apart; plants 6 inches 
apart in row; requires about 44,100 plants to acre. Onion plants are much cheaper and grow a 
large sweet onion which keeps through the winter. 
YELLOW BERMUDA—The most popular of all the Bermuda varieties. It is a light straw- 
colored onion. No onion compares with the Bermuda in mildness of flavor, and for this reason 
it is extensively planted, especially in the South, where it reaches perfection. 
CRYSTAL WHITE WAX BERMUDA—No other onion has such clear, white skin, such mild¬ 
ness of flavor. It is deliciously tender and can be eaten raw like an apple. We begin shipping 
about January 1 and continue shipping Bermuda plants until May 1. Write or wire us for prices 
on larger quantities when wanted. All prices on Onion plants are subject to crop conditions 
and market changes. Price, Either Variety—100, 15c; 200, 30c; 500, 60c; 1,000, $1.00; post paid 
BUCHANAN’S STATE CERTIFIED SWEET POTATO SLIPS 
One bushel Sweet Potatoes produces about 3,000 slips. Tied 100 to bundle. 
Set in rows 3 feet apart; plants 12 inches apart. It takes about 10,000 plants for each acre. For 
a home garden 1,000 slips will make you a nice patch. I ship many orders of 500, and even 100 
plants. We begin shipping Sweet Potato Slips April 10, weather permitting, and ship every day 
until July 1. We believe May and June are the best months to set them. 
NANCY HALL—This is our most popular Sweet Potato, because of its early maturing and 
ready sale on all markets. 
PORTO RICO YAMS— It is fine-grained, juicy, as good for eating as the Nancy Hall, and has 
the additional quality of being a good winter keeper. Color, golden red, running, late maturing, 
good keeper, and I consider it the best Sweet Potato grown. 
Price, Either Variety— 100, 50c; 200, 90c; 500, $1.75; 1,000, $3.00; post paid
