No. 64. LirrLe Prxir,—GRrua., ’82, ’85, ’86; Sib., 86; Vim. 
Syn. Tom Thumb, Vil. 
Plant small, dull dark green, scarcely glaucous; head 
small, of the Oxheart shape, compact; outer leaves nearly 
flat, roundish, margin entire, border plain. 
This was formerly grown as an early cabbage, but has 
been largely superseded by Karly Wakefield and other larger 
and earlier sorts.

Resembles in general appearance the Early Wakefield. 
The head is a little shorter in proportion to its diameter, 
the outer leaves are possibly a little larger, rather more 
tapering at the base, and not quite so thick. In season it 
is usually a very little later than Early Wakefield.

Plant resembles in general appearance the Winnigstadt, 
but is somewhat larger in size ; head oblong conical, very 
regular and svmmetrical, pale, sometimes yellowish-green, 
extremely solid, usually slightly larger than that of the 
Winnigstadt ; outer head leaves closely embracing, usually 
extending a little above the point of the head, as in the 
Winnigstadt, often forming a tubular or twisted projection; 
outer leaves very large, but not very numerous, growing 
nearly erect, and as high as the top of the head, strongly 
waved, suggesting the appearance of, some of the larger 
caulifiowers ; oval, with entire margin and apex, and undu- 
late borders, veins usually not conspicuous; stem rather 
tall, often swollen below the head. 
A very reliable intermediate variety, which when sown 
late, is good as a winter cabbage.

plantes potagéres, p. 115.
