PEDIGREED ASPARAGUS—MARY WASHINGTON 
MAMMOTH 3-YEAR-OLD ROOTS 
The great iMary Washington developed by the United States De¬ 
partment of Agriculture is in our opinion the best strain of Asparagus 
known. Our seed came from the Pedigreed Seed Company. Planted 
in the Spring of 1933. The roots have now had three summers’ growth. 
They are very large and produced stalks sufficiently large enough for 
cutting last year, in fact our employees supplied their own tables from 
these plants for a number of weeks. Two years ago we sold these 
extra old, extra large plants at $7.00 per 100. As we wa^t to use 
this particular piece of land for new planting we decided to dispose of 
this entire lot of plants. Spring or Fall is an excellent time to pre¬ 
pare an Asparagus bed and by planting this Spring you gain a year.
