The flowers are the edible part of 
Broccoli. Harvest them while the cluster 
is still in the green bud stage and has 
started to spread. Cut within 8 inches of 
the stem and more clusters will develop 
later. Try our New De Cicco Broccoli. 
This Long Island 
Strain of Brussels 
Sprouts is the best 
we have seen 
either for market 
or for your own 
garden. 
Harvest Brussels Sprouts when the 
heads are about an inch in diameter. 
Pick the lower heads first. If you will 
break off the leaf below each sprout as 
you harvest it, new sprouts will form on 
the stem.

Broccoli 
Made a lot of friends last year in 
Victory Gardens. 
One ounce seed will produce about 1500 plants. — 
A vegetable very similar to Cauliflower but less deli- 
cate in flavor. Hardy, thrives best in cool weather and 
should be hoed and watered frequently. Sow the seed 
inside or in cold frames in January or February and set 
out plants when ground is warm. A large bluish green 
flower bud head forms in the center. After this is 
removed, small heads are produced on side branches. . 
Cultivate same as Cauliflower. 
«x Italian Green Sprouting Calabrese. A favorite 
vegetable with the Italians and now becoming very 
popular in our American gardens. The plant forms 
ood sized heads, and after these are cut, other heads 
orm, providing fresh vegetables for a long season. 
Sow early in cold frames for spring; outdoors in June 
and July for a fall crop.

Brussels Sprouts 
One package of seed will produce 200 plants; 
one ounce will sow 200 feet and produce 5000 plants. 
The small heads, resembling Cabbage, are formed 
along the stalk. Prepare like Cabbage or in cream, 
like Cauliflower. Sow seed in spring; transplant and 
cultivate same as Cabbage, except leaves should be 
broken down in fall, giving heads more room to grow. 
Freezing improves the quality of 
the sprouts. They may be left 
in the ground, here in the North, 
until December. 
«x Long Island Improved. (Spe- 
a cial Strain.) A very fine strain 
grown extensively for the New
