The heads or sprouts when ready to use are deep green. After the central head is removed, the plant produces numerous branch heads which are fully as de- sirable as the first heads produced. A continuous supply may be had for a long time from a few plants. While the sprouting type of Broccoli is of recent introduction, it is rapidly gaining in favor, and is a very profitable crop which finds ready sale at good prices in city markets. We have taken pains to secure seed of the very best strain. Pkt. 10c—3 Pkts. 25c, Postpaid. CELERY ASPARAGUS Or Ivory White Sea Kale Celery Asparagus or Ivory White Sea Kale is a de- licious perennial vegetable which is cultivated some- what like asparagus, and is very easily grown. It is ready for use earlier in the spring than asparagus, and combines the flavor of asparagus with that of cel- ery. Its blanched stalks are cooked like asparagus and the leaves are used as greens. Owing to its ex- traordinary merit it is worthy of general cultiva- tion. Pkt. 10c—3 Pkts. 25c, Postpaid. KOHL-RABI Early White Vienna Kohl-Rabi (Turnip Rooted Cabbage) The Kohl-Rabi belongs to the Cabbage family. It does not make a head, but the stalk forms a turnip-shaped swelling just above the surface of the earth. These balls when the size of an egg make a very excellent vegetable. May be cooked either like cauliflower or turnip, resembling cauli- flower in flavor. They are in season during June, July or August, or at periods when turnips are not good, and succeed in dry weather when turnips are fibrous and hot. For a continuous supply sow every two weeks up to the middle of July. EARLY WHITE VIENNA is the best variety of Kohl-Rabi; very select, extra-early strain; ready for the table in 68 days from seed. F
