Native probably of Great Britain and Northern Europe 
Turnip seed may be sown when the Peach is in blossom, or among the first seeds in early Spring; indeed, 
the only hope of a successful Spring crop is in an early start, as otherwise the period of maturity extends into 
hot weather, when the bulb becomes fibrous and pungent. Midsummer and early Autumn are the seasons 
for the most successful Turnip drilling to obtain good roots for Winter use. 
WHITE FLESHED SORTS 
Cow Horn or Long White Green Crowned— 
80 Days 
This variety is a pure white, except a dash of green 
in the crown. It is a large cropper. Roots some¬ 
times 12 inches long. In shape it is very much 
like a long carrot, only it is blunt at the point and 
very often has a slight crook. 
Cow Horn Red Crowned—80 Days 
This is identical to the Green Crowned except that 
the crown is red. Flesh is tender and mild in flavor. 
Early Flat Red or Purple Top Strap Leaf—50 
Days 
This is a very early flat Turnip with a red or purple 
crown. Used for cattle feeding and extensively for 
the table. Roots flat, about 2 inches in diameter, 
flesh white. Not equal to the Red Top Globe. 
Listed by us over 100 years ago. 
Early Flat White Dutch—50 Days 
This Turnip is very early and resembles the Early 
Flat Red or Purple Top in most respects except that 
the roots or bulbs are all white. Listed by us over 
100 years ago. 
Early Snowball—60 Days 
The earliest and most perfectly formed round white 
Turnip for garden use. A small white globe, very 
quick in its growth and highly recommended as a 
Turnip of fine texture. 
Extra Early Red Top Milan—40 Days 
This and the White Milan are the earliest Turnips 
in cultivation. Similar but earlier than Purple Top 
Strap Leaf. 
Extra Early White Milan—40 Days 
This is identical with the Red Top Milan, except 
in the color of the top. It is used quite extensively 
for forcing. Similar but earlier than the White 
Flat Dutch. 
Jersey Lily—65 Days 
Very similar to White Egg, but longer, and not so 
early; flesh of excellent quality. 
LANDRETHS’ SOUTHERN SNOW WHITE 
GLOBE—80 Days 
Color pure white, shape round, size large, solid, 
quick in its growth for a large Turnip. Produces 
a great tonnage to the acre. We recommend this 
to stock breeders for early feeding, also for sowing 
at seasons too late to plant Rutabagas. 
Large Early Red or Purple Top White Globe- 
60 Days 
This is a large sized, rapid grower, attractive in 
appearance and admired by all. As its name in¬ 
dicates, it is globular, roots are large, purple or red 
crown, white underneath. The flesh is white and of 
fine texture. The roots when about 2f to 3 inches 
in diameter, are the best size for edible condition. 
This is the most popular and most largely used of 
all the White Fleshed varieties. 
Large Early Red or Purple Top White Globe 
Shogoin or Japanese Foliage—60 Days 
This is a decided acquisition to both the Turnip and 
the Greens classes. It produces an abundance of 
tender delicately flavored leaves, and later a full 
crop of very tender Turnips, closely resembling 
Early White Flat Dutch. It is a very rapid grower. 
The leaves as greens, being ready fully as early as 
any of the Turnips for greens. After the leaves are 
cut the roots form rapidly, reaching maturity fully 
as early as Flat Dutch and Purple Top Strap Leaf.
