Long- Brig-htest Scarlet 



LONG BRIGHTEST SCARLET. This variety, 

 by some called Cardinal Radish, is one of the 

 handsomest Long Radishes grown. In shape 

 it is intermediate between the long and half- 

 long sorts. It is early, being fit for use in 25 

 days after sowing. In brightness of color it 

 is quite unique, being the brightest fiery scarlet 

 we have ever seen in any radish; flesh crisp, 

 brittle, and of a delightful pungent quality. A 

 fine variety to sell well in the markets. Per

 small leaves, and matures quickly. The flesh

 Its great value lies in its being in fine market 

 condition when quite small and continuing so

 hot weather without becoming tough and pithy.
