ANDREWS-BURRI SEED CO. -:- 505 WALNUT, KANSAS CITY, MO. 
SALAD BOWL (New) 
A new introduction for 1952. A head fills a salad bowl, with a perfect rosette 
of rich green and very decorative leaves. It is a loose-leaf variety, seems to 
stand up much better than Oakleaf, is a faster and larger grower, much slower 
to bolt, and of extremely high quality. Leaves are short and closely set, waved 
and notched, hold their quality, tenderness, and fine texture over a long period. 
This attractive novelty is a honey for home gardens, and may be packaged for 
' fancy market trade. It has a similar appearance to endive or escarole.
