STEIN’S EARLY FLAT DUTCH. (90 days.) This is an 
old standard, hardy, winter variety. It produces a very large- 
sized plant, spreading in growth, with few large, broad outer 
leaves. The head is of large size, flat, and very solid.

SAVOY, PERFECTION DRUMHEAD. (90 days.) Savoy 
cabbage ‘is commonly called “curly-leaf” or “curly” cabbage. 
It has a distinct flavor which is favored by many people. The 
plant is of large growth. The large, rich, dark green leaves 
are uniformly wrinkled or savoyed and curled. The heads are 
medium in size, hard, and stand a long time without bursting. 
The best variety of the savoy type for Florida.

RED ACRE. (72 days.) This variety fills a long felt need 
in being the only red cabbage that matures very early, only 
a few days later than Extra Early Copenhagen Market. The 
plant is very small, compact and makes good sized, round, 
hard, deep red colored heads. Very uniform as to type. Espe- 
cially desirable for muck land production in Florida. 
Seed crop a complete failure. 
No seed available until early fall 1945. 
RED ROCK. (98 days.) Plants large and compact. Heads 
of medium size, very hard, globular in shape, exceedingly at- 
tractive in appearance, being of deep purple color throughout. 
Our stock of this variety has been specially developed for uni- 
formity and high yielding qualities. In our extensive cabbage 
trials we have found our Bred-Rite strain of Red Rock to be 
far superior to other strains of this variety in the development 
of uniform hard heads. 
Pkt. 10c; oz. 60c; %4 Ib. $1.80; 1 Ib. $6.75. 
RED DANISH. (98 days.) Our improved strain of Red 
Danish is the most highly bred, heavy yielding, and uniform 
strain yet developed. The plants are of vigorous, but compact 
growth, every plant producing a hard, heavy head, with excel- 
lent dark red color throughout, free from bursting, and an ideal 
type for shipment. No more uniform, true to type, heavy yield- 
ing variety of red cabbage can be secured anywhere. Every 
plant will produce a good marketable head. A big improvement 
over the old Mammoth Red Rock.

CHINESE CABBAGE 
Also known as Celery Cabbage, although it is not a true 
cabbage, and grows more like a Cos or Romaine lettuce. 
Plant 1 pound per acre. 
In the garden make two plantings at different times. 
Plant 1 packet to 40 feet of row at each planting for a 
family of 3 or 4 people. 
Cutture. This is distinctly a cool-weather plant and should 
not be planted for a spring or summer crop, because it quickly 
bolts to seed in hot weather. It should be planted only for a 
late fall and winter crop. Seeds should be planted in 2% to 3 
foot rows where the crop is to mature, thinning out as the 
plants develop to stand 8 to 12 inches in the row. May be 
started in seed-bed and transplanted like cabbage, but usually 
does better when started in the field or garden where crop is 
to mature. If started in seed-bed, only half as much seed is 
required as for field or garden planting. Chinese Cabbage 
makes excellent cole slaw. It may also be boiled like ordinary 
cabbage. It is a very tender, healthful vegetable and very nu- 
tritious and digestible. 
CHIHLI (PEKIN CELERY CABBAGE). (70 days from 
seed planting in field or garden to edible stage. ) This strain 
surpasses all other varieties of Chinese cabbage. It is sure 
heading, maturing into long, slender, very firm, well blanched, 
crisp, tender and sweet heads, readily salable in any market. 
The heads become 18 to 20 inches tall, 344 to 4 inches thick, 
tapered near the tip, solid, sweet and tender.

CAULIFLOWER 
Sow 4 ounces in seed-bed to plant an acre 
In the garden sow one packet in protected seed-bed for 
thirty plants to set 50 feet for a family of 3 or 4 people. 
No crop is affected more in its behavior by weather and soil 
conditions than is cauliflower. Because of the frequent spells 
of hot weather and high humidity during the winter months 
in Florida, which are not conducive for good cauliflower pro- 
duction, it has been difficult to produce this crop to perfection 
with ordinary varieties and strains of cauliflower seed. We 
have been working many years in an endeavor to secure strains 
of cauliflower which will do well under Florida climatic and 
soil conditions. As a result, we have found and are now offer- 
ing strains which are particularly well suited to high tempera- 
ture and humidity conditions. 
CuLTURE. We recommend starting plants in well prepared 
seed-beds where conditions provide for continuous rapid growth. 
A cauliflower plant which has once been checked or stunted 
in growth will never produce a large, well-formed head. Plant 
in seed-beds from September to December and cultivate the 
same as cabbage, spacing 2% to 3 feet between rows and 18 to 
24 inches in the row. Cauliflower needs a very rich soil and 
plenty of moisture. Just as soon as the head develops to the 
size of a walnut, it is very important to draw the outer leaves 
over the head and tie with soft cord to produce attractive, pure 
white, solid heads. 
The number of days in parentheses after each variety indi- 
cates the number of days to produce edible heads from setting 
out plants in the field or garden.

SUPER SNOWBALL. (55 days.) This is a very early ma- 
turing strain of the Snowball type, which, because of the curled 
formation of the leaves over the head protects it from the 
sun and from freezing. The dwarf, compact plants are strong, 
vigorous, with many short, large, round, broad, heavy, spread- 
ing, light green leaves, and a short stout stem. The heads are 
broad, large, smooth, solid, pure white in color, and exceed- 
ingly uniform; under proper growing conditions, producing 
over 90% grade one heads. Highly recommended as an early 
winter crop, to mature in cold weather.

SNOWDRIFT. (62 days.) This is one of the surest headers 
known, and is especially well adapted to withstand the hot, 
humid climatic conditions prevalent in Florida. The vigorous 
plants grow larger and taller than Snowball, are more compact 
and upright in growth, with long, tall, rather narrow, elliptical 
shape, erect, growing, dark green leaves, which protect the 
head or curd in its early growth. The large, snow-white, at- 
tractive heads are very deep, heavy, and firm or solid, even 
under relatively hot, humid growing conditions, making this an 
ideal variety for early spring production in Florida. Very free 
of leafy and ricy heads. This variety should satisfy the most 
critical growers. A most desirable type for long distance ship- 
ment.
