RED ELEPHANT 
CARROT. 
A veritable giant both in 
length and rotundity. Speci- 
mens have been exhibited at 
our establishment measuring 
two feet and a half in length 
(30 inches). It has been 
brought to this high standard 
of perfection by one of the 
best professional gardeners, 
from whom we originally 
acquired the whole stock. 
A remarkable variety, and 
one which has already become 
prominent in first-class gar- 
dens and on the exhibition 
table.
