Chinese Broad Leaf (Elephant’s Ear) Mustard 
Culture. General cultural directions similar to those for cab- 
bage (see page 10), except seed is always planted direct in the 
field or garden. Mustard is one of the quickest growing greens. 
Sow seed August to March in good, rich garden soil in rows 24 
inches apart and thin to 8 to 10 inches in the row. Heavy 
fertilization with a fertilizer mixture high in nitrogen or 
ammonia and moist soil are conducive for quick growth, high 
yield and good edible quality. Does best, and has most agreea- 
ble flavor, when grown in cool weather of late fall, winter and 
early spring. Makes a very healthy, nutritious dish, high in 
food value, when boiled for greens. 
The number of days after each variety indicates the time 
from seed planting in the field or garden to harvest stage. 
Prices quoted are postpaid.
