. Illustrated and descriptive seed catalogue and price list for 1900. Nursery stock California San Francisco Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Herbs Seeds Catalogs; Grasses Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. AND PRICE LIST. 21 CAULIFLOWER. French, Choufieur; German, Blumen-Kohl; Spanish, Coliflor. The cauliflower belongs to the cabbage family, and from its superior qual- ities as a table vege- table is fast growing in favor. To insure suc- cess, a rich, moist soil should be selected. For early crop start in hotbed; for later use sow in open ground, transplanting to fif- teen inches apart, in thirty-inch rows. Cul- tivate thoroughly, hill- ing up the earth around the stalks at each hoeing, and water well, while the heads are forming. EARLY SNOWBALL.—By many considered one of the best varieties. A sure header, producing handsome, round, firm heads, of excellent flavor and quality. Heads large, mature early, and keep well all winter. EXTRA EARLY DWARF ER- FURT.—Very dwarf, sure to head, and the earliest. The heads are of good size, pure white, very solid, of excellent quality and delicate flavor. EARLY LONDON.—A leading early variety; a sure header, hardy and easier of cultivation than many other kinds. The heads are large, solid, very white, tender and deli- cious. EARLY PARIS.—A popular early sort. The heads are large, white, tender and excellent. Early and compact growing. A favorite with market gardeners. Early Erfurt. EARLY FAVORITE.— A certain header; large white heads; tender and delicately flavored. A standard variety for early or late crop, and a good keeper. LENORilAND'S SHORT STEM.—One of the largest and most reliable for general cultivation. The heads are well protected by leaves, so that it is particularly valuable for growing in dry, hot localities. LARGE ALGIERS.—Upright, large, a sure header, heads well protected by leaves in the event of frost; has no superior in quality as a late variety. For Prices, see Price I*ist at end of Cat
