COLE'S GARDEN ANNUAL. 



CINCINNATI MARKET RADISH. 



GINGlNNflTl MARKET 

 RftDISfl. 



This fine new variety is sent out by Mr. Liv- 

 ingston, whose description we give: For many 

 years Cincinnati has been noted the country 

 over as headquarters for the production of rad- 

 ishes of finest quality and appearance. 



These radish growers fronj long experience 

 have become expert in this line, and. by care- 

 fully selecting and growing their own seed for 

 over thirty years, have perfected this. THE 

 HANDSOMEST LONG RED RADISH IN 

 CULTIVATION. 



The tops are so very small that the radishes 

 may stand touching each other in the rows. 

 One grower says the tops are too small to 

 "pull by." and that he never thins this variety 

 like he would other kinds that would quickly 

 run up to seed if left standing too th'ck in the 

 row. They grow straight and smooth, six to 

 seven inches long. Their attractive, glossy 

 scarlet skin is verv thin, and the fiesh crisp and 

 brittle and of a delightful, pungent flavor. 

 Without doubt IT IS THE FINEST LON'; 

 RED RADISH FOR FORCING, and outsel s 

 anv other that is put in competition with it on 

 the market, and being LONG STANDING it is 

 also an EXTRA FINE sort for the home gar- 

 den. 



Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. lOcts., lb. 25 cts., lb.

ROIND SCARLET CHINA 

 RADISH. 



A Radish for all soils and climates. Fine for 

 earlv or late summer use. It is a new variety 

 of the Chinese Round Winter Radish, and may 

 be sown at intervals from early spring until 

 autumn, and the roots obtained from late sow- 

 ing can be kept in storage for winter consump- 

 tion. It requires but six to eight weeks for 

 its full development, and. like the old China 

 AVinter sorts, is much hardier than any other 

 earlv varietv. The root is perfectly round and 

 of a brilliant scarlet color: flesh pure white 

 and of a most agreeable flavor: in size it is 

 large, but the quality is always the finest, hav- 

 ing the desirable characteristic of retaining 

 its crispness even when the roots are several 

 weeks old. Price per pkt. 5 cts., oz. 15 cts., 

 14 lb. 40 cts.

We can recommend it alike for 

 family garden and for market as one 

 of the most valuable and quick 

 growing radishes. I'lanted under or- 

 dinary conditions May 5th, it was 

 ready for the table June 3d. Th;^ 

 tops are very scant, nnd admit of 

 closest planting. As will bo seen by 

 our cut. the R;id shes ar.' perfectl.v 

 round, smooth, and with iittrac'ive. 

 light golden-brown skin. The flesh 

 is crisp, white, juicy, and of the 

 finest flavor. Market gardeners can 

 either grow this now Radish in the 

 garden or force it, and di-pend upon 

 a remarkably perfect, early and uni- 

 form crop.
