Henderson’s Famous Snowball 
HENDERSON’S PRIMOSNOW. 
This outstanding extra early variety was introduced by us and is 
now recognized as the leading first early variety. The heads or 
“flowers’’ possess many of the characteristics of our famous Snow- 
ball—good form, good size, great depth, and a beautiful snow-white 
color, free from riciness or leafiness. The plant is sturdy; the foliage 
of fine form; the inner leaves being incurved give ample protection 
to the developing ‘“‘flower’’. Primosnow is the earliest high quality 
Cauliflower that has ever been developed. It is ready to cut fully 
8 to 10 days before such strains as Snowball or Erfurt and is of 
such uniform maturity, that practically the entire crop may be cut 
at one time. Highly recommended for market growers and ship- 
pers,

IMPROVED HOLLAND ERFURT. 
Also Called SNOWDRIFT and WHITE MOUNTAIN. 
A popular variety and used extensively in all sections where 
Cauliflower is grown. The plants are vigorous, uniform, and 
the inner leaves fold over the head, thus giving good protection 
until the heads are well developed. The heads are large, deep, 
very white, of excellent appearance, and mature a few days 
earlier than Snowball.

EARLY SNOWHITE (SPECIAL NO. 25). 
CAULIFLOWER 
We have always controlled Henderson’s Snow- 
ball and Primosnow Cauliflower, any statement 
to the contrary notwithstanding, and unless the 
seed is bought directly from us, you do not get 
the genuine, as we do not supply dealers. Sold 
only in sealed packets. 
HENDERSON’S SNOWBALL. 
Excellent for Forcing—Dependable for Spring 
Crop—Unsurpassed for Fall Planting. 
Market Growers the world over have used this strain 
year in and year out since it was first offered many 
years ago. We are continually receiving letters testi- 
fying to the dependability and general excellence of 
Henderson’s Snowball. The widespread demand for 
this strain clearly indicates that it is adapted to the 
widest range of soil and climatic conditions of any 
variety of Cauliflower in existence. 
The plants are of medium height, sturdy and vigorous. 
The outer leaves are of upright growth, while the inner 
ones fold over in such a way that the “flowers” are 
completely protected until they have reached a good 
size. The heads are uniformly large, deep, very 
solid, snow white, and under normal growing condi- 
tions are entirely free from leafiness. Attractiveness 
and quality are unequalled.

SUPER SNOWBALL. 
This is an extra early strain of the Snowball type. Besides being 
extra early, the heads or “flowers” mature with greater uniformity, 
making it possible to harvest a large percentage of the crop in 
the first cutting. 
The plants are vigorous and strong. The leaves, especially the 
inner ones are well folded or curled over the heads. The heads 
are large, uniform in size, deep, and solid. They mature early and 
many times the entire crop is harvested before any heads of the 
later types are ready. One of the most profitable varieties for market.

We are pleased to 
offer this new outstanding early variety. It has shown up well in 
our Cauliflower trials, and the commercial growers who have tried 
out this new type, are very enthusiastic about its merits. The plants 
are sturdy and somewhat taller growing than Primosnow. The 
inner leaves fold over the heads and overlap each other in such a 
way that added protection is given to the ‘flowers’ until they are 
well developed. Even the outer leaves which are straight and up- 
right, are inclined to curve inward at the tip. 
The heads are large, of o uniform size, very deep, solid, excep- 
tionally heavy, pure white, and of the highest quality. The well 
formed tight curd gives the heads a most attractive appearance. 
In season EARLY SNOWHITE is a few days later than Primosnow, 
but practically as uniform in maturity.

WHITE ROCK. There are so many stocks, good, bad and indifter- 
ent, of the well-known Erfurt Cauliflower that we have for years 
been looking for a strain that would be distinctly superior. We 
think we have now found one that is in a class by itself. Hender- 
son’s White Rock, while not being quite so early as Primosnow, is 
earlier than Erfurt and Snowball. The plant is particularly vigor- 
ous and produces a deep shaped, pure white head of superb qual- 
ity, well covered and protected.
