Kilgore’s 
GROTHEN’S RED GLOBE. (70 days.) This is a very 
early maturing, high yielding variety especially well adapted 
for fall planting in Florida. The plants are of open growth 
with rather small foliage requiring rich, deep, moist land for 
best results, maturing fruits about 12 days earlier than Rutgers, 
and ripening to a beautiful red color. A very heavy producer 
of smooth, deep globe-shaped, large fruits, sizing up well clear 
to the top of the plants, producing a very high percentage of 
fancies. The fruits are firm and solid, and the interior ripens 
up slowly, making this variety an exceptionally good shipper. 
Extreme earliness and exceedingly high yields of large fruits, 
of excellent shipping quality, are the main factors recommend- 
ing this variety. This variety does not do so well on light 
sandy soils, but is especially recommended for a fall, winter 
and early spring crop in Florida and is well suited to deep, 
wet glades, hammock, and rich sandy loam soils. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 35e; oz. 60c; 1% Ib. $1.90; 1 lb. $7.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $6.90 per Ib. 
PRITCHARD (SCARLET TOPPER). (75 days.) The 
Pritchard was developed by crossing Marglobe with Cooper’s 
Special Self-Topper. It combines the good qualities of both 
parent varieties. Vines medium dense, compact, erect, self- 
topping. Fruits mature very early, several days earlier than 
Marglobe, are large, smooth, meaty, globular in shape and 
ripen uniformly to a very deep attractive red color, both 
exterior and interior. This variety is an enormous producer 
and therefore requires rich or liberally fertilized moist soil. 
Does especially well on Everglades muck. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 30c; oz. 55c; %4 Ib. $1.65; 1 lb. $6.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $5.90 per Ib. 
LIVINGSTON’S GLOBE. (80 days.) An improved strain 
of the old Livingston’s Globe variety, popular in the Gulf 
States for many years. Our improved strain is very productive 
of fancy, perfectly globe-shaped fruits, holding their large 
size and shape until the last pickings. Ripens to a beautiful 
deep pink. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 35c: oz. 60c; 14 Ib. $2.00; 1 Ib. $7.50 
5 to 25 lbs. $7.40 per Ib. 

Improved Grothen 
Red Globe Tomatoes 

MARGLOBE., (77 days.) This is an excellent strain of the 
old standard type of Marglobe. It produces a heavy, vigorous 
plant growth, resistant to nailhead rust, Fusarium wilt and 
other diseases. The deep globe-shaped, smooth fruits are heavy, 
thick walled, firm or solid, and are free of navel and blossom- 
end scars. The ridging at stem end has been practically elim- 
inated. We have made selections for larger fruit size. Fruit 
ripens to a beautiful deep scarlet-red color. Our Bred-Rite 
strain consistently produces a very high percentage of fancy 
fruits which results in fancy prices. Especially well adapted 
to and recommended for north Florida. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 30¢; oz. 55c; 4 Ib. $1.65; 1 lb. $6.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $5.90 per Ib. 
EXTRA SELECTED GLOBE. (80 days.) This extra se- 
lected strain is one of the strongest and most vigorous growers, 
and because of this vigor the plants stay green and in bear- 
ing condition, producing marketable fruits longer than most 
other strains of the pink globe variety. The plant has an open, 
spreading habit of growth, and is ideally suited for staking and 
pruning. Its smooth, perfectly globe shape fruits do not crack, 
and ripen to a beautiful deep pink color. This extra selected 
strain produces a very high percentage of large, smooth, uni- 
formly deep globe-shaped fancy fruits even on the top hands. 
No finer strain of this standard variety for Florida growing con- 
ditions can be found anywhere. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 40c; oz. 75e; 44 lb. $2.50; 1 Ib. $9.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $8.90 per Ib. 
OXHEART. (90 days.) A smooth, thick, tender and almost 
seedless pink-fruited tomato of delicious flavor. Rich soil 
adds greatly to its productiveness. This is an ideal variety 
for the home garden and for the local market. 
Pkt. 10c; % oz. 65c; oz. 1.25; % Ib. $4.00; 1 Ib. $15.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $14.90 per Ib. 
PONDEROSA. (Brimmer.) (88 days.) A very large, pink- 
fruited variety. The fruits are more or less flattened, very 
solid and meaty with few seeds, and of splendid edible qual- 
ity. Recommended only for home gardens because its un- 
usual size and weight are disadvantages in shipping. 
Pkt. 10c; 4% oz. 45c; oz. 85c; %4 Ib. $2.75; 1 Ib. $10.00 
5 to 25 Ibs. $9.90 per Ib.
