RADISH 



Giant Butter. 



SRabieS^cn, 9kttig Radis, Rave, Petite Rave Rabano 



For an early supply sow in January and February in hotbeds, keeping 

 well ventilated. In May tlu y may be sown out-of-doors. Successive sow- 

 ings should be made every two weeks. Radishes, to be crisp and tender, 

 should make a rapid growth. 



Boddington's Early Frame. J^ei^!'or^5c?:t&.^75c.flb''52: 



Crimson Giant. "^'^'^ variety is suitable for either forcing or early 

 * planting out-of-doors. A remarkable feature of this 

 Radish is that it will grow double the size of other round red forcing Rad- 

 ishes and still remain solid, not showing the least sign of becoming hollow. 

 In shape this new Radish is round to oval, and is very attractive. The flesh 

 is mild and tender, and we recommend it to our customers as one of the 

 best in its class, having found it to be such in our extensive trials of Rad- 

 ishes. Pkt. 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., Mlb. 60 cts., lb. $1.75. 

 Cooper's Sparkler. A quite distinct new sort of a beautiful rich 



^ — r carmme-scarlet color, with a pronounced tip of 



pure white. The roots even when 

 fully developed are solid, crisp and 

 sweet. Equally good forforcingor 

 for the open ground. Pkt. 10 CliS., 

 OZ. 25 cts., 3^1b. 75 cts., lb. $2. 



New Forc- 

 ing Radish, 

 round, short-leaved, scarlet. 



One of its most prominent features 

 is the perfect regularity of its fine 

 round shape and its very small 

 tap-root. A further improvement 

 gained by careful selection con- 

 sists in its being very short-leaved 

 and of a vivid scarlet coloration. 

 The tastefulness of its tender and 

 crisp flesh is unrivaled and will be 

 acknowledged by every one who 

 has compared this, my introduc- 

 tion, with other varieties. "Giant 

 Butter" does not, in spite of its 

 uncommon size, become hollow 

 and pithy, but keeps crisp and juicy 

 for weeks, even longer than any 

 other kind. Owing to its short 

 leaves it may now be successfully 

 used for forcing. Its size, of course, 

 demands a broader as well as a 

 deeper sowing which will but re- 

 compense by a good crop, as five 

 to six Radishes generally have a 

 weight of one pound. Pkt. 25 cts., 

 S pkts. for $1.
