DREER'S GARDEN CALENDAR. 



ECLIPSE BEET. 



Eemarkable for its rapid growth, extreme smallness of top, 

 and extra fine quality. Perfectly smooth and round; skin and 

 flesh intense red ; very fine grained and sweet. We consider it

 culti -ation. Per pkt., 5 cts. ; oz., 15 cts. ; lb., $1.00. 



MANGEL WURZEL. 

 GOLDEN YELLOW MAMMOTH.

 moth ; tlesh, leaf stalks and midrib of the leaves golden yellow, 

 flesh rich in saccharine matter. This should be grown largely

 profusely, large pods, varying

frost. 



A new extra early 

 Sogar Corn, from five 

 to ten days earlier 

 than the Marblehead. 

 In richness of flavor it 

 excels that variety and 

 owing to its extreme 

 earliiiess is worthy of 

 a trial by everj' market 

 gardener.

EARLY ARLINGTON CELERY. 



A variety of the Boston market. It is fully four weeks earlier, of rfiuch larger 

 growth, does not blight as badly, nor run to seed. We consider it the very best 

 variety for early growing, as it blanches very easily and much quicker than other 

 sorts. We especially recommend it to those who use only small quantities, and find 

 trouble in growing other kinds. It is crisp, solid, and has an exquisitely nutty 

 flavor. Per pkt., iO cts. ; oz., .50 cts. ; J lb., $1.50.

White Plume Celery. 



Early Arlington. 



WHITE PLUME CELERY. 



The stalk and portions of the inner leaves and heart are white, .so that by tying 

 them up with matting, or by simply drawinsr up the soil against the plant the work 

 of blanching is completed, while with all other kinds of Celery, in addition to this, 

 the slow and troublesome process of high " banking" is a necessity. It far exceeds 

 any known vegetable as an ornament for the table. The eating qualities are eqijal 

 to the very best older sorts, being crisp, solid, and having that nuity flavor peculiar 

 to some of the red kinds. 



Per pkt., 10 cts. ; oz., 75 cts. ; J lb., $2.50. 



Add 25 cents per quart, 4 cents per J^ lb., when ordered to be sent by mail.
