Fordhook Fancy Mustard
The plants, of vigorous growth, have beautiful dark-green leaves which curve outwardly like a fine ostrich plume. It is most productive from early spring sowings, and also most stubborn in running to seed. It stands well, even during the hot summer months. By making several sowngs a few weeks apart a continuous growth of fresh tender leaves may be had throughout the season. Even those who do not care for mustard as a piquant salad will be delighted with the leaves of “Fordhook Fancy,” cooked like spinach, any time during the summer. It is even superior to the best spinach in flavor. Pkt., 5c; oz., 10c; ¼ lb, 25c; lb., 75c; postpaid.
