Seed should be sown June Ist to June 15th for commercial growing. 
EARLY SPROUTING ITALIAN 
This tall branching plant forms a 
compact central head of bluish 
green flower buds resembling a 
loose head of cauliflower. When the 
central head is removed, small 
heads on offset branches develop 
throughout the season. The small 
heads with stems are cut off and 
served in the same way as aspara- 
gus. For early use, sow in hot bed 
or seed may be sown out of doors in 
May. Set the plants about 18 
inches apart in rows 2% feet apart. 
GREEN MOUNTAIN (New) 
A new early sprouting Broccoli, as 
early as DeCicco, darker broad 
leaved and vigorous plant. Forms 
very large compact dark green 
center heads with tight buds making 
it unusually attractive for market 
or freezing. Center heads are the 
highest quality with long stems 
making it easy to divide large 
heads for freezing. Heads mature 
uniformly making it easy to har- 
vest with few cuttings. Laterals are 
produced slowly but are large and 
sometimes nearly equal size of 
central heads. The finest strain for 
early planting. 
WALTHAM No. 29 
Developed at the Waltham Field 
Station, Mass. Recommended fo. 
fall crop only; especially adapted 
in the Northeast and along the 
Atlantic Coast. The plant is short 
and stocky, dark bluish green in 
color, and forms excellent dark 
green center heads with fine buds, 
and strong side shoots or sprouts. 
Used for market and freezing. 
BRUSSELS SPROUTS 
A packet will produce about 200 plants; an ounce about 3000. 
Grow and cultivate the same as cabbage, except that the leaves should be broken off the stem in 
the fall which gives the little heads more room to grow. The small heads are the edible part and are 
more tender and delicious than cabbage. 
CATSKILL MOUNTAIN (New) 
This new strain of Brussels Sprouts 
should make it possible for anyone 
to raise first class sprouts even 
under the most adverse conditions. 
Plants are medium size and pro- 
duce an abundance of large, firm, 
dark green sprouts of finest qual- 
ity. Larger and better quality than 
the old kinds and have proven 
they are best for home and market 
garden use,
