DREER'S GARDEN CALENDAR. 



GOLDEN QUEEN TOMATO. 



A very handsome new yellow Tomato ; resembles the 

 Paragon in size, solidity, and productiveness ; in color it is 

 a rich golden yellow, with a slight tinge of red at the 

 blossom end. For preserving this sort will be found in- 

 valuable, as the flavor is mild and almost free from acidity, 

 and the flesh very thick. 



Per pkt", 15 cts. ; 2 for 25 cts. ; oz., 50 cts. 



TOMATO KING HUMBERT. 

 Strawberry Tomato. 



A desirable sort for preserving and for table decoration. 

 By cutting round near the base of the Tomato the whole of 

 the centre can be removed. This is of a delicate straw- 

 berry flavor, and is very attractive as an ornament. An 

 excellent preserving sort. 15 cts. per pkt. : 2 for 25 cts. 



HICKORY KING CORN. 



A new and distinct white dent Field Corn ; the cob is re- 

 markably small, and as shown in the cut can be nearly 

 covered by a single grain. The stalks are strong, and bear 

 two and occasionally three ears. As it is very productive 

 and of good quality we feel certain it is a variety that has 

 come to stay. 



25 cts. per qt. ; $1.00 per peck ; $3.50 per bushel. 



THE SIBLEY SQUASH. 



An improvement on the Hubbard. The shell is 

 smooth and thin and of a pale green color ; flesh thick, 

 solid ; vivid orange in color ; very dry ; of fine grain 

 and delicate flavor. The Squashes weigh from 8 to 

 11 pounds, and are excellent keepers. 25cts.perpkt. 





Chas. Downing Potato. . 



An improvement on the Snowflake. Eyes few and 

 close to the surface; cooks white, mealy, and is of superior 

 quality; to its fine appearance it adds remarkable pro- 

 ductiveness,, and as an early sort will take the lead. It is 

 regular in size and form, and promises extremely well as a 

 market sort. Per lb., postpaid, 25 cts. ; 3 lbs., 75 cts. ; peck, 

 $1.00; bushel, s3.00 ; by express, * peck, 60 cts. 



Cardinal Globe Radish 



Of globular shape and brilliant red color, with short top 

 and especially adapted for forcing, as it will stand a large 

 amount of heat without becoming pithy; flesh tender, 

 crisp, and in quality all that can be desired. We can 

 safely recommend this sort for private as well as market 

 gardens. Pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 25 cts. ; \ lb., 75 cts.
