A. Foliage smooth, or but little blistered. 
I. Heads more or less distinctly flattened. 
No. 1. ALL Seasons, GREG., ’86. 
Appears closely allied to the St. Denis. It has rather less: 
lustre than that variety, but in other respects the resem- 
blance is remarkably close. Introduced by Mr. Gregory in 
1886, and is recommended both as an early and late cabbage. 
Said to be across between ‘Flat Dutch” and ‘Drum- 
ead.” 
Figured correctly in Gregory’s catalogue 1886. 
No. 2. AMaGER, VIL. (d.) 
Syn. Amager Danish Winter Round, Ben., 86; Ger. Amager rundes dan- 
asches winter Kraut oder Kopfkohl, Ben., 86. 
Plant of medium size, but tall, the stem at least four 
inches long below the leaves ; foliage rather pale bluish- 
green ; head small, slightly flattened, extremely compact,. 
scarcely paler than the outer leaves, which are roundish or 
oval, flat or spoon-form, slightly blistered, with plain or 
undulate borders. 
A very hardy Danish variety that has few desirable qual- 
ities for our climate. 
No. 3. BERGEN DRUMHEAD ; BRILL; Burk; GREG. ; HEN. 
Syn. Great American, Burr; Large Bergen, Burr; Landreth’s Mammoth 
Bergen, Land., ’86, Large Bergen Drumhead, Hen., 86; Large German Drum- 
aa Burr; Large Late Bergen, Thor., ’83; Quintal, of Vil., (incorrectly), 
urr. 
Plant of the largest size, spreading ; foliage of a very 
deep bluish-green, much blistered, leaves with strongly 
ruffled borders; head large, more or less flattened, pale: 
green, compact ; stem short. 
This cabbage is very reliable for heading, keeps well, and 
is a standard winter variety in some sections. It is allied 
to the Large Late Drumhead, but is rather larger, and the 
foliage is of a deeper bluish-green. 
No. 4. Berkshire Beauty, Greg., 86; Till., 84. 
As grown at the Station, this appeared to be a strain of 
Premium Flat Dutch ;—a shade paler in color than that of. 
the common strain, with the borders of the inner leaves. 
rather less undulate, and the outer leaves more inclined to. 
spoon form. Itisa little later than Fottler’s Brunswick,, 
and has proved very reliable for heading. 
No. 5. Bronsx1 Russtan, Ben., ’86. 
Syn. Ger. Bronski, sehr fruhes spitees russisches Kraut, Ben., ’86. 
Closely resembles the Ulm Quintal ; leaves small, oval or 
roundish, petioled ; head round, extremely hard.
