Bloomsdale Savoy-Leaved Spinach 

SPINACH 
BLIGHT RESISTANT SAVOY. 
This new variety is quite distinct from Virginia Blight Resistant. It 
is an early type, especially adapted for early spring and fall plant- 
ing. Plants large, leaves dark green, nearly as well crumpled as 
Bloomsdale Savoy and stand longer before going to seed.

BLOOMSDALE SAVOY LEAVED. 
A very popular variety to sow for the late fall cutting. It is quick 
growing and a heavy cropper, producing large, fleshy, dark green 
leaves which are deeply crumpled or savoyed. It is largely grown 
for an early spring or fall crop. If sown in the spring, it must be cut 
as soon as ready, as it quickly runs to seed.

KING OF DENMARK. 
It is very dwarf and makes a wonderfully quick growth, setting an 
abundance of dark green tender leaves, which are slightly crum- 
pled.

LONG SEASON. 
Spinach sown in the late spring and summer has a habit of going 
to seed just when it should be ready for market. Henderson's Long 
Season grows more slowly than other varieties, but after attaining 
its growth will stay in that condition for a much longer time. The 
plant is small, with lustrous green leaves which are short, broad, 
and thick. The leaf stems are very short, which so greatly reduces 
the size of the plant that it forms a compact, dense rosette, perfect 
in color and it occupies less room than any other variety. 
Price Crop failure.
