of a splendid deep crimson colour, and of the finest flavour possible : in naming it nainty, we wish to 
convey the extremely refined (piality of this variety ; it does not attain to the size of our Perfection (sec page 3).

Ornamental Foliated Beet.— An interesting species for decoralion in tlie flower garden. The 
thick fleshy ribs are lieautifully coloured either yellow, crimson, cream, or while, and the contrast with the 
shining green leafage is very effective. 
Price 6d. and is. per packet. 
Croton-leaved Beet. — A decided acquisition to the group of decorative Beets, the long, narrow, crimson- 
bronze leaves having an elegant appearance. For the ribbon border, or as a pot plant for talde decoration, 
it is effective. The roots are edible.

developed the leaves instead of the root. It is sown at the .same season as Beetroot in .'Vpril. in rows 
about 18 inches apart, and the plants thinned out to 15 inches apart. At the end of summer they may 
be lifted as required, the green portion of the leaves cut off and the fleshy stems boiled and served with
