ASPARAGUS 
@ 
New PARADISE 
The New Giant Strain of asparagus. It will produce a@ crop one or two years 
sooner than will any other known variety today. It is rust resistant, producing 
stalks of immense size and wonderful appearance. Is easy to grow, and once 
planted will last from 12 to 15 years with very little care. Paradise is the first 
asparagus to produce in the spring, and this crop is harvested early when you 
do not need to be bothered with other things on the farm.

MARY WASHINGTON 
For several years we have listed only the Paradise variety, but due to a demand 
from some of our customers, we have this year produced a fine crop of Mary 
Washington plants for those who like this variety. The pedigreed seed that we 
use produces specimen stock often more than an inch in diameter. It is very 
crisp and delicious. Wonderful for canning. The heads of Mary Washington 
are very solid and compact; thus, always commanding a better. price than as- 
paragus that has loose heads. This variety is absolutely rust resistant. Grows 
very fast and comes up exceedingly thick in the row, producing a very heavy 
crop. Approximately 5,000 plants are required to set an acre. Once planted they 
last for years, requiring little care. Starts to bear in Michigan in May and con- 
tinues for about two full months.

rhubarb. Is bright cherry red the full length of the stalk, very large 
size, and a huge producer. Is extremely tender and has a fine 
flavor. Stahelin's MacDonald is from original divisions, and will 
produce rich, ruby-red stalks so much desired.
