Carters’ Crimson Ball •—An extra early Summer Beet. 
Awarded a Special First Class Certificate at the Vegetable Conference of 
the fioyal Horticultural Society ; also included in our customer’s Gold Medal 
Group of Vegetables, &c., Eoyal Horticultural Society, October 1896. 
This is a great acquisition to our list of round Beets, having a fine small top, very 
sweet, flesh firm, and bright blood colour. It is valuable alike for private gardens and 
for market gardeners, on account of its extreme earliness, as well as its numerous 
other good qualities. 
“ Those who require early Beetroot will find this a very fine type for early Spring 
sowing. Last season I had it ready for table the last week in May.” 
Mr. G. Wythes, Head Gardener to Earl Percy, in the Garden. 
‘ ‘ I should like to direct attention to Carters’ Crimson Ball as an early Beet of 
great value. It turns in quickly, and the roots are bright in colour and delicate in 
flavour. Sown in April, the roots are fit for use at the end of June, and enable the 
cultivator to bridge over a season of scarcity.” — W. Coleman, Eastnor Castle, 
in the Gardeners’ Magazine.
