749 America (New) 
Exceptionally Long-Standing Deep Green Type 
Stands longer than any other commercial vari- 
ety and thrives in hot weather! This remarkable 
new spinach is still in prime condition a week or 
ten days after other kinds are gone, and it holds 
its wonderful glossy dark green color and firm 
texture in midsummer heat. 
The plants are heavy and compact, 6-8 inches 
high and 10-12 inches across. It is a slow grow- 
ing type, adapted for late spring and summer 
crops, but at maturity it produces great quanti- 
ties of very thick, heavily crumpled leaves that 
hold up much better for market than other 
varieties. America is extremely uniform and 
beautifully savoyed and its thick dark leaves 
are ideal for market. All-America Silver Medal 
for 1952. See prices below. 
750 Blight Resistant Savoy 
In late summer and fall, when other varieties 
blight, this is the kind to use, for it can be de- 
pended on to produce large crops of dark green, 
well crumpled leaves. It is practically 100% 
resistant to blight. Although this variety does 
not stand as well as others in the spring, our 
fine strain will stand three or four days longer 
than most. See prices below. 
765 Special Summer Savoy 
Extra-Selected—Long Standing 
For many years this has been the best obtain- 
able long-standing type for spring and summer 
use. It is a uniform, well crumpled or savoyed 
type with an attractive deep green color and it 
stands for a very long time without bolting. 
Our strain is widely used by many of the most 
critical growers and is an extra fine imported 
stock. Valuable not only for spring use but also 
for wintering over as it is very hardy. See 
prices below. 
755 Long Standing Bloomsdale 
Best for Early Spring Crops 
We offer an excellent large-growing strain of 
this famous variety which we recommend espe- 
cially for early spring plantings. It has a 
faster growth and a broader frame than Special 
Summer Savoy and can be cut sooner. It stands 
without bolting almost as long and the big, 
deep green, well crumpled leaves ‘bushel: up”’ 
fast. This is a beautiful true stock. See prices 
below.
