CRIMSON GIANT 
This variety grows to 5 and often 
6 inches in circumference, weigh

time. The flesh remains spar- 
kling white, solid, crisp and juicy 
and it is of the mildest flavor.

RADISH CHERRY-BELLE 
725 CHERRY-BELLE (New) 
All-America Bronze Medal Winner 
1949 
AS ROUND AND RED. 
AS A CHERRY 
Here is the most attractive radish 
we have ever seen. The roots are re- 
markable not only for their bright 
‘scarlet color, but also for their: 
startling uniformity in shape and 
size—you feel that every one of them 
comes from the same mould. 
CHERR Y-BELLE is just as good to 
eat as it is to look at, for the flesh is 
delightfully crisp and firm. It has an 
extreme resistance to pithiness, and 
thus retains its prime condition 
much longer than the general run 
of radishes. The tops are exception- 
ally short and gray-green in color. 
Season 23 days.

tasty during the summer than chilled,
