EARLY GLORY. An early strain of Glory of Enkhuizen. A 
round-headed type, somewhat like Copenhagen Market but 
slightly later and heavier, with a darker green color. The 
heads are protected by large, thick, overlapping wrapper leaves, 
reducing damage from frost in Southern areas. Produces solid 
heads of excellent shipping and market quality. 
BADGER MARKET. A _ second-early, yellows-resistant variety 
producing a small, solid head. Outstanding for its trim, uni- 
form appearance and lively green head color, it has yielded 
well in Wisconsin and on muck soils in Florida. Badger Market 
warrants commerical trials in those areas where Copenhagen 
Market, Golden Acre, or Green Acre are now used, especi- 
ally where Copenhagen Market may produce heads too large 
for market preference. 
CHINESE CABBAGE 
EARLY ROUND DUTCH. A hardy and dependable round- 
headed variety. Relatively non-bolting under Southern winter 
conditions and stands cold weather better than other round- 
headed varieties. The plants are compact, with short stems; 
suitable for close planting and especially desirable for muck- 
land production. 
Chinese cabbage is a cool weather plant and not recommended for spring and summer crops. Should be seeded directly in the field. 
CHIHLI. 75 days. Head 3”-4” thick, about 18” tall and cylindrical, tapered at tip, solid, well blanched, sweet and crisp. 
WONG BOK. 85 days. A short, stout, oval variety, about 7” in diameter, 9” high; compact and well blanched. 
COLLARD 
Collards may bolt if exposed to low temperatures during early growth. Many growers remove seed stalks two weeks before harvesting.

VATES. Developed at the Virginia Truck Experiment Station. The 
plants are vigorous, spreading, low-growing, with large, heavy, dark 
green leaves developing from short stems. Stems and leaves hold 
their color in cold weather, in shipping, and on the market. Vates 
has been a heavy yielder in the Norfolk, Va. area, averaging 
700 bu. per acre. The low-growing plants are less subject to wind 
damage than other varieties; slower to bolt. The AsGRow stocks 
of this very uniform variety come from the originator’s latest 
selection.
