RADISH 



GREENHOUSE VARIETIES 



Henderson's Specially Selected Strains for Forcing 



GLOWING BALL. 



This variety is especially adapted for spring and fall greenhouse 

 forcing. However, we do not recommend Glowing Ball for mid- 

 winter greenhouse use, because in extensive greenhouse trials, 

 the tops produced in the winter were too small and tender to permit 

 satisfactory bunching. The roots are very uniform, round in shape, 

 with a thread-like tap root. The color is brilliant scarlet and makes 

 a beautiful bunch radish. This variety is also good for outdoor use. 

 Season 20 days. 



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 unsurpassed 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.
