The leaves are large, broad, arrow-shaped, and dark green. Used extensively in California. Del Monte is a round seeded Hollandia, as also is Immerhorn. Winter Giant is a good strain of the Prickly Winter type. â KING OF DENMARK, An exceptionally long standing sort, highly desirable for canning, and for market gardens. The large, spreading plants carry broad, rounded, very dark green leaves, which are somewhat crumpled. Excellent for spring planting as seed stalks are slow in forming. â OLD DOMINION, Developed at the Virginia Experiment Station and introduced in 1929. A cross between Virginia Savoy and King of Denmark, resistant to mosaic and of long standing character. Plant similar to the Savoy but leaves somewhat more pointed. Very resistant to cold and used mostly in fall plantings for early spring harvest. â VIKING, A darker leaved selection from Nobel. Excellent for canning. Plant large, spreading, vigorous, long standing and heavily productive. Leaves very large, thick, medium dark green. Heavy Pack is a good type of Viking; plants are strong and vigorous, with large, medium green, slightly crumpled, thick leaves on short stalks. Color intermediate between Nobel and King of Denmark. â VIRGINIA SAVOY (Blight Resistant), 39 Bred at the Virginia Experiment Station for mosaic resistance.

Leaves somewhat smoother than other strains of Savoy. â VIROFLAY, 45 An old extremely large, mid-season, vigorous growing variety, with long,
