BURPEE’S NEW VEGETABLES 
1121 FORDHOOK HYBRID TOMATO 
60 days. A new early, everbearing, wilt resistant hybrid tomato noted 
for its uniformly shaped, smooth fruits, and the very heavy yield of 
, | the vigorous vines which begin 
to bear early and continue to 
produce profusely through- 
out the entire growing sea- 
son. At Fordhook, it out- 
yielded all other varieties 
for the year. Under general 
field conditions, the fruits 
are of medium size, averaging 
5 ozs. in weight and larger when 
staked; oblate to globular in 
shape, an even scarlet-red in color, 
» and mildly acid sweet in flavor. Plants 
are strong growing, spreading, semi-up- 
right, with dense foliage which affords 
protection from sun scald. 
Pkts. (30 seeds) to retail at 25¢; 
offered to dealers in kraft pkts. only 
at 50% discount. 








Burpee Hybrid Cucumber is the first hybrid cucumber 
and Fordhook Hybrid Tomato is the first hybrid

Tomato inated on Burpee’s Fordhook Farms in Pennsylvania. 
370 BURPEE HYBRID CUCUMBER 
60 days. High resistance to bacterial wilt, mosaic, and downy mildew are the outstanding attributes of 
this new hybrid white spine slicing type cucumber. Vines are extremely vigorous, long lived and bear 
an abundance of well formed green fruits of handsome appearance, 8 in. long, 214 in. wide, square at 
both ends with medium seed cavity and crisp, white flesh of excellent quality. We regret to announce 
that the supply of the Burpee Hybrid Cucumber seed is very short. We can offer it at wholesale only 
in sealed packets @ 20¢ each. (Retail price 25¢ per pkt.) We expect to be sold out of this hybrid 
cucumber before the season is over and would appreciate dealers not ordering any more packets than 
they actually need. Can be furnished only in kraft packet bags. Pkt. (30 seeds) 20¢ net.

RED TAMPALA 
Better Than Spinach 
Burpee’s Red Tampala_ (Tam- 
pal’-a) is equal in all respects to Bur- 
pee’s Tampala, introduced by us last 
year, but instead of the leaves being 
green they are variegated green and 
red, the red extending out along the 
veins of the dark green leaves whose 
underside also is red. When cooked, 
prepared, and served like spinach it is 
attractive, appetizing, and most de- 
licious. Has double the Vitamin A 
content of spinach. Easy to grow and 
does well in hot weather. 
Ve oz. 45¢; 14 oz. 85¢; 14 oz. $1.60; 
oz. $3.10; 14 Ib. $12.25; Ib. $48.00.
