Buist's Prize Med- al Flat Dutch, (Improved).--This cele- brated variety, the Seed of which is sold only under onr Seal, is called by many the Soke Headee, and is well named, for it never fails in forming fine heads in any soil and in any climate. Its popularity with mar- ket-gardeners and pri- vate growers increases with each year. It is of the easiest culture, and will always pro- duce a profitable crop. Our annual sales of it are continually increas- ing, and wherever it has been introduced it has taken the lead in that section, having been found the most profita- ble to grow on account of its great uniformity in heading, and foT the large and magnificent heads produced, rang- ing from 15 to 40 pounds each. It has been improved in the same manner in its selection as Buist's Prize Medal Drumhead. Per oz., 40 cts.; i lb., §; lb., ; 2 lbs., § Premium Large Late Flat Dutch. —One of the oldest varieties in existence, and more largely planted than any other sort, producing large, solid heads of bluish-green, with a broad and fiat surface. When touched with frost, the outer leaves become tinted with reddish-brown; the head is white, crisp and tender. Too much care cannot be taken in the selection of your seed, as one-half sold of this and the Premium Drumhead are spurious. Plant Buist's Improved, which is grown from our choicest selected heads. Per oz., 25 cts ; i lb, 75 cts.; lb., $; 2 lbs., $ Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Robert Buist Company; Henry G.
