A NEW AND DELICIOUS VEGETABLE BELONGING TO THE RADISH TBIBE. 



EAPHANUS CAUDATUS. Mr. Bull's variety, which was exhibited at the International 

 Exhibition, and created such a furor. Of this most interesting addition to our salad plants the pods 

 only are used ; they are of an agreeable delicate Radish-flavour, and of easy digestion. In silads 

 they are highly esteemed, and are most valuable for pickling. When boiled and served up to the 

 table on toast, the pods are, however, most delicious eating, like marrow. The pods are of rapid 

 growth, attaining the length of 3 feet, but should be gathered when about half grown. In addition 

 to their culinary value the plant when in pod is decidedly ornamental and a great curiosity, and 

 worthy of a place in the flower garden. The seed may be raised in heat, potted off, aifd planted out 

 in May, and should be sown in the open ground for succession in May and June. Per 

 packet 1/, 2/6, and 5/.
