Moutarde MUSTARD Meice 
Senf 
Brassica juncea 
Although mustard is well known today and commonly used for greens throughout 
the South, we feel it is destined to become even more popular as people learn of its 
delicious pungent flavor. Canned mustard greens are really good, retaining all the true 
flavor. Mustard is easily grown in spring and fall gardens.

CHINESE BROADLEAF or Elephant’s Ear HMC MAPLE 45 
A commonly grown mustard; hardy and vigorous, producing large, broad, 
oblong, serrate, dark green leaves with a rounded mid-rib, tender and excel- 
lent for greens. This variety does not shoot seed stalks quickly. Seeds reddish 
brown. 
FLORIDA BROADLEAF HMC MANTA 45 
A fine large, rapid growing type; bright medium green, thick, broad, oval, 
smooth, large, slightly serrate leaves with a distinct flattened, wide, whitish 
mid-rib. Extensively grown because of its fine edible qualities and slowness to 
bolt seeders. Seeds reddish brown. 
FORDHOOK FANCY or Ostrich Plume HMC MARCH 50 
A very finely curled plume-like mustard. Very desirable for greens, for its 
excellence in quality, and for being so slow in bolting. A vigorous, upright 
plant, rich bright green deeply fringed leaves. Seeds reddish brown.
