Cardinal
Very stiff, woody, large upright plants bear clusters of 3 to 5 per cluster of small, globular fruit about 1 ¼ inches in diameter. Plants are beautifully ornamental, with their dazzling red fruit hanging on light green, woody branches. Pkt. (about 100 seeds) 25c.
Unusual Eggplant
Two strains of elongated Italian type. It can either be dark green, medium size with white stripes on the bud-end or solid rich light green and turning to brilliant yellow when dead ripe. Maturity of both strains about 80 days, and very prolific. Plants are high bush type, carrying their fruit well above ground, permitting closer planting than usual spreading-type strains. Edible and commercial value of these strains has not been determined. We offer seed for experiment only. Pkt., 25 each.
White Beauty
A superior quality, glistening white eggplant beyond all imagination. As the soap concerns advertise results “whiter than white,” applies also to white beauty. Shape is much like black beauty, but larger. Fruit attains a size of up to four pounds and over. Seed cavities are confined to the bud-end half. Flavor is deliciously mild when fried in batter, unlike the bitter taste of other varieties. Foliage is a rich light green, not having the purple tinge like other strains. Sturdy upright plants grow up to four feet tall, holding the fruit well off the ground. The combination of extremely high quality and striking eye appeal of White Beauty will certainly bring this variety in heavy demand in years ahead. Harvest of eggplant is at its best while skin is still glossy. Pkt., 25c; ¼ oz., 75c; oz., $3.25.
