HENDERSON'S SELECTION OF 



THE BEST SMALL ROUND 



RADISHES 



WHITE-TIPPED EARLY SCARLET TURNIP RADISH. For 



many years we have found this variety to be the most popular of 

 all among private gardeners. It is a most satisfactory sort in 

 every respect, and unsurpassed as a table Radish, where by reason 

 of the strong contrasting colors of the root, it makes a most 

 attractive appearance. The roots are round, of medium size, 

 brilliant scarlet in color, except at the under side, which is pure 

 white. The flesh is crisp, white and tender; and when properly 

 grown, extremely mild. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. oz., 30c. 

 M lb., $1.00 lb. 



EARLY WHITE TURNIP RADISH. Both flesh and skin of this 

 variety are white throughout. The clear white skin has a pecul- 

 iar waxy gloss which adds much to its attractiveness, especially 

 when combined with the scarlet-rooted sorts. It is rather flat, 

 grows quickly, is very tender, and extremely mild in flavor. 

 (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt, 15c. oz., 30c. \i lb., $1.00 lb. 



EARLY ROUND DARK RED RADISH. The darkest colored of 

 the round red varieties and an excellent sort for family use. The 

 roots are round, the tops medium in size. The flesh is pure 

 white, crisp and quite tender. If properly thinned, this variety 

 is rather slow to become pithy. (See cut.) Price, 5c. pkt., 10c. 

 oz., 30c. M lb., $1.00 lb. 



HENDERSON'S ROSE TURNIP 

 RADISH. This variety is distin- 

 guished by its color, which is a 

 charming shade of rosy-pink. In 

 other respects, it closely resembles 

 the better known Scarlet Turnip. 

 It grows very quickly, maturing 

 in 30 days. The tops and roots 

 are of medium size, and the flesh 

 is pure white, crisp, and of good 

 flavor. Its attractive color gives 

 it great value for use in the pri- 

 vate garden, while its charming 

 appearance makes it welcome on 

 any table. Price, 10c. pkt, 15c. 

 oz., 30c. % lb., $1.00 lb.
