SAXA RADISH 
The Earliest Radish Grown 
We have found this new Radish to be earlier than any of the other so-called 
earliest sorts. The best extra early variety for forcing, and for growing in the 
open ground it has no superior. From the time of seed sowing to the table 
in 16 to 18 days, and under ideal conditions are fit to pull in 15 days. It is round, 
bright scarlet in color and has a very small top and taproot. Flesh pure white, 
crisp, brittle, mild and juicy. The Saxa is one of the slowest to shoot to seed.
