DREER'S MARKET GARDENERS' WHOLESALE PRICE LIST 



2) 



RADISH 



Dreer's Selected Cardiual Globe. {See cut.) This 

 is the crisp little rtd radish that is ready for market at a very 

 early date and always meets with ready sale. The radishes 

 grow globular in shape, and the skin is of a most brilliant car- 

 dinal-red color, flesh white. It will stand considerable heat 

 and therefore it is a quick forcer, and the quality is fine, being 

 crisp and tender. It is by far the best variety for forcing, and 

 also does well in open ground, thus making it the most valu- 

 ble early variety for market. Oz. , 15 cts. ; % lb., 45 cts. ; 

 lb., $1.50- By express or freight at purchaser's expense, 

 5 lbs. or more at 5i-25 per lb. 



Earliest Red May. Produces small, round radishes very 

 quickly. The tops are small, and when the radishes are 

 bunched they make a very attractive appearance. The flavor 

 is fine, being crisp and tender. Can be grown outside or 

 forced under glass. Oz., 15 cts.; ^ lb., 45 cts.; lb., 5i-S0. 



^ew Kuby. A rapid grower, nearly round, deep red skin, 

 flesh white, very crisp, and remains in good condition for a 

 long time. May be grown outside, or used for forcing. Oz., 

 15 cts.; % lb., 45 cts.; lb., $1.50. 



Dreer's Crimson Ball. This is an entirely distinct 

 variety, and while of the same shape as the true red turnip 

 radish, the flesh is tinged with red, a very unique feature and 

 the quality is excellent, being crisp, tender and juicy. Oz., 

 15 cts.; X lb., 45 cts.; lb., $1.50. 



Crimson Giant. Suitable for forcing or early planting out 

 of doors and in either case it will prove satisfactoy to all 

 who grow it. The root is round to oval in shape, very solid 

 with rich crimson skin and sparkling white flesh which is 

 crisp, juicy and of excellent quality. It may be used during 

 a long season, as unlike most forcing radishes which soon be- 

 come pithy and unfit for use, it will continue to grow to a 

 large size and still remain solid and juicy. Oz., 15 cts.; ^ 

 lb., 45 cts.; lb., I1.50. 



New Perfection. {See cut.) This type of Radish, 

 having red skin with a white tip, has long been a great 

 favorite, and with this variety the white portion extends much 

 farther up than is the case with ordinary Scarlet Turnip 

 White Tip Radish. The upper portion is a rich, brilliant red, 

 showing in great contrast to the lower portion, which is pure 

 white and adding greatly to its attractive appearance. The 

 general contour is turnip-shape, and size medium, very uni- 

 form, with flesh crisp, tender and sparkling. The rapidity of 

 its growth reco-nmends "New Perfection" for growing in the 

 greenhouse, but it is equally as valuable for growing outside. 

 Oz., 15 cts.; j4 lb., 45 cts.; lb , ;jSl.50.
