IMPERATOR—New Delicious 
1933 All-America Selection, Award of Merit Winner. Re¬ 
markable introduction which fills the great demand for a 
longer Carrot than Chantenay but with the quality of this 
short-rooted variety. Imperator has attractive roots, 7 to 8 
inches long, slightly tapering, sloping shoulders and just 
enough top to bunch well; a little longer root than Danvers. 
Imperator color is deep solid orange from the exterior all 
through to the middle of the root. It is prolific and of high 
quality, brittle, tender, sweet and delicate in flavor. We rec¬ 
ommend this outstanding Carrot for home gardens, truckers 
and shippers. It is delicious from the home garden and also 
it allows Southern and Eastern growers to compete in the 
markets with California Carrots elongated under irrigation.
