DOMINO 
A blight resistant variety from the Virginia Truck Experi- 
36-40 days 
ment Station. The plants.are large, flat growing, with well 
filled center. The variety grows rapidly, bolts early and 
does best as a fall crop. The leaves are long, broad and 
thick with rounded to pointed tips, not as heavily savoyed 
as either Old Dominion or Virginia Savoy. 
SUMMER SAVOY 
\ALEAMERICA SELECTION 7 Bronze Medal 1937 
42-45 days 
A new and better strain of Long Standing Bloomsdale or 
Savoy. It has a darker green color, greater uniformity of 
plant growth, and will stand several days longer without 
bolting to seed. 
VIRGINIA BLIGHT RESISTANT 
(Blight Resistant Savoy) 36-40 days 
This variety was developed by Dr. H. H. Zimmerley of the 
Virginia Truck Experiment Station as a Savoy type resistant 
to blight or yellows. It goes to seed quickly in hot weather 
and on that account is used principally for fall planting. It is 
a rapidly maturing strain resistant to cold.

BLOOMSDALE RESELECTED 39-42 days 
This standard variety with attractive crumpled leaves is 
early and has a fine dark green color. It is used for early 
and late planting as it does not stand the heat well. 
BLOOMSDALE LONG STANDING 42-45 days 
A slow seeding Savoy type, and we consider it the best 
all-around late seeding spinach. The plants are erect, com- 
pact, vigorous growing, bolting to seed 10 to 14 days later 
than regular Bloomsdale Reselected. The leaves are thick, 
glossy dark green, medium large, heavily savoyed, crum- 
pled, tender and of good quality. 
OLD DOMINION (Blight Resistant) 40-42 days 
A yellows-resistant variety also developed by Dr. H. H. 
Zimmerley of the Virginia Truck Experiment Station. It is a 
cross between Virginia Savoy and King of Denmark and 
possesses the blight resistance of Virginia Savoy and the 
late seeding characteristics of the King of Denmark. The 
leaves are dark green and crumpled or savoyed except at 
the tip. Should be sown in late fall or early spring. 
EXTRA DARK GREEN BLOOMSDALE 39-42 days 
A special and extra dark green strain of Bloomsdale 
spinach. It resembles Reselected Bloomsdale, but is more 
uniform and will stand longer, besides having a darker color.
