. 1902 catalog : pure & sure seeds. Nursery stock Missouri Catalogs; Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. MAGNUS N Fot staking up in the open iicldf as well as for forcing in greenhouses, it is highly recom- mended. See prices and full description, page 83« The Wonderful PONDEDOSA In size, weight and solidity, no variety can approach it. It excels in magnificent size, often attaining a circum- ference of 18 inches, often weighing- 3 and 4 pounds each, perfect in form, free from wrinkles, as smooth as glass and as solid and meaty as beefsteak, free from watery cavities and almost seedless; it ripens thoroughly from cen- ter to skin, its glowing crim- son color permeating the flesh to the heart; It is free from rot, but above all. the delicious quality and flavor are its crowning merits — toothsome and rich when sliced, savory and delicious when canned. The plants of Pon- derosa Tomato are lux- uriant, healthy growers, in- dependent of droughts, free from blight, and are prodigi- ous, early and continuous bearers. First ripe fruits are often picked in ten weeks from seed sowing, while late fruits may be gathered until frost. Ponderosa is not only the best family tomato for the home garden, but equally val- uable to grow for sale. It also fruits well under glass.
