. Barnard's seeds, bulbs, shrubs 1918. Seeds Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Fruit Seeds Catalogs; Nurseries (Horticulture) Catalogs. TRIANON COS LETTUCE, OR ROMAINE SALAD It differs from ordinary Lettuce by the shape of the leaves, which are elongated, spoon-shaped and very crisp. It is grown in the same manner as Cabbage Lettuce. Sow seed early in the spring in good soil, and when plants have three leaves thin out to stand about four inches apart in the row, and when plants are of a sufficient size the leaves should be drawn together and tied, in order to blanch the inner ones.

It never forms a head, but produces an abundant crop of pale green leaves, slightly but closely crumpled, which, even when old, retain their characteristic tenderness and brittle character. In this respect it excels many of the best heading varieties. We strongly urge those who cannot succeed in get- ting lettuce to head to grow Grand Rapids. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 30c; lb., $ BLACK-SEEDED SIMPSON LETTUCE The leaves are large, light green, quite crimpled throughout, but especially frilled at the border. They grow, compactly without forming a distinct head, are of firm texture and of good quality either for family use or for shipping. Can be planted later than most sorts, as its vig- orous growth enables it to withstand the sum- mer heat. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; % lb., 30c; lb., $ Trianon Cos Lettuce WAYAHEAD LETTUCE It is not only earlier than May King, and other fine early varieties, but the tightly folded heads are generally larger in size. The outer leaves are a rich, buttery yellow. "Wayahead" stands a longer time before running to seed than any other early head variety.
