Scarlet Globe Radish 
SPINACH 
Spinat (Ger.) Spinace (It.) 
Spinach Came From Arabia. 
KING OF DENMARK. Also known as ‘Antvorskov.’ This new 
variety is undoubtedly the most valuable introduction of 
Spinach in recent years. Although the plants are ready for 
use almost as soon as the medium early sorts, they remain 
in good condition from a week to two weeks after all other 
varieties have gone to seed. The plants are of rapid growth, 
resemble the Long Season in type but leaves are more 
crumpled or blistered and are of darker green

PRINCESS JULIANA. 50 days. This is a new type

plants.) This first bolting seed has been 
eliminated in this new race by the production 
of hermaphrodite plants, these plants seeding 
much later than male plants. Pkt., 10c.
