@DEEP HEART FRINGED (See Photo Page 24) 87 Days 
This is an entirely new type of endive ranging between Full Heart and 
Green Curled. Is more upright in growth than either and leaves are broader 
than Green Curled. The color is nearly the same as Green Curled having the 
leaf edges as deeply cut and curled. The outer leaves turn upward and is 
much less likely to have bottom rot than other varieties. Hearts are well 
filled, compact, with an abundance of fine leaves which blanch to beautiful 
creamy yellow. Plants are usually 10 to 12 inches across and 8 inches deep.

FENNEL or FINOCCHIO 
A packet will sow 25 feet of row, an ounce 150 feet. 
CULTURE. Sow early in spring, in rich, well prepared soil, in drills two feet apart and cover 
one-fourth to one-half inch deep. When the plants are about two inches high thin to ten inches 
apart in the row. When half grown, if the plants are earthed up and treated as celery, the stems 
will be nearly as white, crisp and palatable. Hardy annual, two to four feet high. 
Florence 
A bulb like vegetable which is formed above the ground at the base of the leaf 
stalk if the plant is well grown. Blanched and boiled it hasa slightly aromatic 
odor and pleasant taste. Plant very branching, upright with dense thread- 
like foliage. This is quite distinct from the common Sweet Fennel used for 
flavoring.

KALE 
A packet will sow 25 feet of row, an ounce 125 feet. 
BORECOLE, KALE and GERMAN GREENS are general terms applied to those classes of 
cabbages that do not form heads, but are used in their open growth. Some of the varieties are the 
most tender and delicate of any of the cabbage family. They are hardy and are not injured by the 
frost 
CULTURE. As far north as New York they may be sown in September and treated like spinach, 
or they may be planted and treated like late cabbage and will continue growing until very late in 
the season. In the south they will live and grow throughout the winter without protection. It is 
better not to cut or handle them when frozen, but if this is unavoidable, thaw them out in cold 
water. The young shoots which start up in the spring from the old stumps are very tender and make 
excellent greens. 
DWARF BLUE CURLED OR SCOTCH 
A finely curled, spreading, low growing variety, very hardy and much used 
for greens. This sort, sometimes called Norfolk, is grown extensively in the 
south for shipment and is planted largely for the home garden. The leaves 
are long and attractive bright green. This sort is often used for garnishing.
