green leaves, somewhat crumpled. It possesses the valuable quality of
standing for some time after attaining its growth, before running to
seed.

THE NORFOLK SAVOY LEAVED.--The leaves of this kind are wrinkled like a
Savoy cabbage. It makes a large bunch of succulent leaves, producing
more weight of leaves than any other variety, and is more hardy than
any of the other kinds.
NEW LONG STANDING.--This is one of the best varieties for spring
sowing, as it stands longer than any other before running to seed. The
leaves are thick, fleshy and crumpled like the Norfolk Savoy Leaved.
