CALIFORNIA BUNCHING. 



An excellent strong top variety for bunching. The roots are about 

 8 inches long, cylindrical in shape, pointed when young but be- 

 come almost stump rooted at maturity. The flesh is most attractive, 

 deep orange in color. The core is the same color as the flesh, and 

 gives the appearance of having no core at all. We can highly 

 recommend this strain for growers desiring a long bunching Carrot.
