Plant medium in size, dull, dark green, little glaucous; 
leaves round, very thick and stiff; head ox-heart shape, 7. e. 
a short cone, inflated, with a rounded apex; distinctly paler 
than the outer leaves, compact: leaves about the head 
nearly erect; outer leaves usuaily nearly flat, smooth, with 
plain borders and entire margins; stem short. 
A very popular variety with market gardeners, for earli- 
est crop. Said to have been first grown by Francis Brill, at 
Jersey City, N. J., about 1830, from seed imported from 
England. Its merit consists in its large, compact head, re- 
liability for crop and great earliness. It is said to produce 
little seed, and only that grown in this country has proved 
reliable. 
Correctly figured in Gregory’s catalogue of 1881 and later 
years.

Closely allied to the Large Oxheart, of which it is but a

for the London market.

Closely resembles Early Wakefield, the chief difference 
being that the plant is a trifle smaller, the head usually not 
quite so solid, especially at the tip, and matures on the 
average very slightly earlier, and the outer leaves are thin- 
ner, and hence more waved and distorted.
