Cabbage is easily grown and may be eaten raw as cole slaw or 
cooked in different ways. While the smooth leaved varieties are the 
most popular, some prefer the green savoy crumpled leaved (Per- 
fection Drumhead); others, the deep purplish-red (Mammoth Red 
Rock); some the round heads (Copenhagen Market); others, the

72 days. An outstanding strain of the variety which is notable 
for its uniformity from year to year as well as in a single year’s 
planting. This uniformity makes it valuable to home gardeners 
and to market growers who supply a critical trade. Extreme 
earliness is another quality of this cabbage which has found 
favor with our customers all over the world. Produces well- 
rounded, solid heads of excellent quality, 61% in. in diameter 
and 6 in. deep, weighing from 4 to 4% lbs. Plants are small and 
quite compact with few outer leaves, which permits close 
planting. Heavy yield, convenient size, attractive shape, 
solidity and fine quality combine to make Copenhagen Market 
the popular early cabbage it is today. The flavor is remarkably 
fine so that it is also desirable for early kraut making. Reliable 
and uniform. First introduced in America by Burpee.
