VEGETABLE SEEDS FOR FLORISTS 
W ITH increasing interest in home gardens, florists should take full 
advantage of the opportunity of supplying vegetable plants that are 
sure to be called for in increasing quantity—especially Tomato, Pepper and 
Cabbage. In our list of varieties you will find those adapted to home 
garden use as well as varieties suitable for those who grow for market. 
THOSE WOODEN PLANT BANDS 
In growing vegetable plants for early crops or for selling to home 
gardeners, band grown plants are of particular value. When these plants 
are put out without the heavy check that follows when dug from flats, 
they get into bearing earlier. For vegetable plants we recommend the 
larger sizes. Selling bedding or vegetable plants is made more attractive 
when offered in these hands. See inside front cover page of this catalog 
for full description, sizes, and prices, of these hands.
