Cherry - Belle 



CHERRY-BELLE 



A.A.S. Bronze Medal Winner 



This variety has found an important place among forcing va- 

 rieties. It will retain its short top when planted in the green- 

 house for the first fall crops, and in the late spring when 

 the relatively long daylight hours tend to make most strains 

 produce too much top. It has also made a good record on 

 muck. The roots are as round and as red as Cherries, and 

 remarkably uniform in size and shape.

SCARLET GLOBE GREENHOUSE STOCK. This outstanding strain 

 has been especially bred for growing under glass. The tops 

 are small, yet large enough for perfect bunching even during 

 the shortest days of mid-winter. The roots are just a little 

 longer than round, with a small slender tap root and a rich 

 bright scarlet color. The flesh is white, of fine texture, and un- 

 surpassed in quality. This strain is superior to any stock we have 

 ever seen from a standpoint of shape, uniformity, bright color, 

 and heavy yield. Season 21 days.
