cluster of three to five green onions.

gent member of the onion family. It is 
much prized for flavoring soups, etc. We 
offer local grown bulbs, or “cloves,” as 
they are called. Each little “clove” 
should be planted separate about 6 inches

Orach 
This vegetable is sometimes known as 
Scotch or German Greens. The plant will 
grow about five feet tall on moist soil. 
The leaves are large and thick and pro¬ 
duced abundantly over a longer period 
than ordinary spinach. The rows should 
be at least 18 inches apart and the plants 
thinned out to about 6 inches for best re¬ 
sults. While the flavor is not exactly 
identical to spinach, many who have used 
Orach like it the better of the two. At 
least two plantings should be made a sea¬ 
son. Orach will thrive on moist soil that 
is too acid or too poor for common spin¬ 
ach. It is worth trying in every garden. 
Pkg. 10c; oz. 30c.
