All Seasons
No variety is more reliable than this in producing heads. Its rapid growth and good size market it desirable for either early or late planting, and for the latter purpose it has become very popular. Heads are solid, round, flattened on top and will remain longer in the field without bursting than any.
Allhead Early
This excellent second early market sort produces heads that are very large for so early a cabbage and of very good quality. It is desirable not only for general spring planting but by planting late it can be used as a fall and early winter cabbage. The variety is is well adapted for kraut. The plants are compact, with few outer leaves which are comparatively smooth and rather thick, being nearly entire at edges and only slightly waved. The stem is short. The heads are solid and flat but very deep. Our strain is of special value.
Charleston or Large Wakefield
A strain in which the plant is larger and a little later than the Early Jersey Wakefield, the head being not so pointed and much larger. Exceedingly hardy and on account of the fine, solid head with market gardeners and shippers it is deservedly a very popular sort to follow Jersey Wakefield.
Copenhagen Market
The earliest large round-headed cabbage yet introduced. The heads are exceptionally large for so early a variety, very solid and of most excellent quality. The plants are vigorous but compact, with short stem and few outer leaves which are of rather upright growth. The leaves are medium light green, nearly round, comparatively thick and smooth. This is a most excellent sort, both for the home garden and market gardening trade. Our strain produces the characteristic large, round heads that for solidity and excellent quality make this variety so valuable.
Danish Ballhead
A distinct type of winter Cabbage, maturing later than the Flat Dutch. Especially recommended for its great solidity and excellent keeping qualities. The heads are nearly round in form, hard and solid, and weigh heavier for their size than any other Cabbage.
Early Dwarf Flat Dutch
71 days. Splendid variety for home and market garden. Plants small and compact; stem short. Heads almost ball shaped, commonly 7 to 8 inches diameter, 6 inches deep and weigh 4 ½ – 5 lbs.; firm and of high quality.
Early Jersey Wakefield
This cabbage has for many years been the leading early variety, and is undoubtedly the best on the market. The only difficulty is to get a perfectly reliable and satisfactory strain of seed. Our customers may feed assured that in buying from us they get the genuine article, and the very best that can be obtained anywhere. Our seed is specially grown for us on Long Island where the variety originated, in soil and climate perfectly suited to its highest development. The Wakefield produces heads that are uniformly hard and solid, pyramidal in form, generally pointed at the ends and with few outside leaves. It can always be depended upon as a sure cropper. Even in unfavorable seasons, when other early varieties fail, it will invariably produce a fine lot of solid heads of first quality and largest size.
Ferry's Round Dutch
71 days. Splendid variety for home and market garden. Plants small and compact; stem short. Heads almost ball shaped, average weight 4 ½ to 5 pounds.
Glory of Enkhuizen
This second early variety is very sure heading and of excellent quality. The plants are of vigorous growth with large, rather spreading outer leaves which are noticeably curved and frilled. The heads are globular or very nearly round, very solid and of large size for so early a variety.
Golden Acre
This is a new, early, round-headed Cabbage which closely resembles Copenhagen Market in type. As its name implies, it is a money-maker. It is 8 to 10 days earlier than Copenhagen Market but is smaller and can be planted closer. Because of its earliness and fine quality it commands a higher price than any round-headed Cabbage.
Large Late Drumhead
This standard variety matures a little earlier than many of the late sorts, is of low growth with a very large head, broad and flat. A sure crop producer.
Mammoth Rock Red
This is the best, largest and surest heading red cabbage yet introduced. The plant is large, with numerous spreading leaves. The head is large, round, very solid and of deep, red color. Nearly every plant will form an extra fine head.
Penn State Ballhead
A strain developed by the Penn Experiment Station. It is the heaviest yielding cabbage known in tonnage per acre. It resembles Danish Ballhead but is slightly more flattened and requires a longer season.
Perfection Savoy
The Savoy Cabbages are very tender and of fine flavor, very much superior in this respcet to the ordinary late fall and winter Cabbage. Should be much more largely grown, both for home use and market. The strain of American Drumhead Savoy which we offer makes large sized heads of most superior quality, and truckers and private gardeners alike will find it an excellent variety.
Premium Late Flat Dutch
Our strain of this standard and reliable variety is the result of many years' selection, and is, we firmly believe, the finest on the market. We have exercised extreme care in having the seed grown. The heads are flat, remarkably large, even, very solid, and of fine texture. Stems are short and quality superior. Nearly every plant may be depended upon to produce a fine large head. Is also an excellent keeper. Market gardeners and farmers who grow cabbage for market all over the West and Southwest buy their seeds from us year after year and invariably report satisfactory and profitable crops.
Stein's Early Flat Dutch
An old variety but still popular. It succeeds anywhere, but seems especially suited to the South because of its marked heat-resisting qualities. It belongs to the Second Early class and produces large, solid, flat heads of uniform shape and handsome appearance; when fully developed they frequently weigh twelve to fifteen pounds each. The heads are fine-grained and of dainty flavor.
Succession
A sure heading sort, intermediate or second early in season and adapted for autumn as well as late summer use.
