CARROT. 
The Cultivation of Carnot. —For early forcing sow in January in frames, in February on warm border. Make successional and main crop sowings during March and 
April in deep well-conditioned soil to which manure has not been recently applied, cover the seed very lightly in $-inch drills, and as soon as the plants are strong 
enough to handle, thin out from 4 to 8 inches. Further sowings may be made up to the end of June.

CARTERS’ RED ELEPHANT CARROT. 
Carters’ Long Forcing. 
A handsome long Carrot, with the same depth of colour and firmness of 
texture in its earliest stages as other Carrots possess in their later growths. 
Carters’ Long Forcing Carrot.—“This forcing Carrot is one ol the mos' 
distinct and valuable that we possess, and when better known it is sure to be 
extensively grown. It is the quickest variety that I know of, and makes but very 
little top, and the quality is excellent. As a Carrot coming into use early in the 
year, and for exhibition, it is an acquisition.” — E. B., in Gardeners’ Chronicle. 
July 16th, 1898.

Carters’ Red Elephant. 
( Sec Illustration . ) 
A veritable giant both in length and rotundity, so much so that we have only 
been able to find room for a photograph of the top portion of the root in this 
catalogue. Specimens we have exhibited at our establishment measured 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, and from whom we have acquired the 
whole stock. It is a remarkable variety, and one which has already become 
prominent in all first-class gardens and on the exhibition table.

This Carrot has so many good and new qualities that it makes a distinct step in 
advance of all other long Carrots. It has a depth of colour not hithertoseen in Carrots, 
the texture of its flesh, while solid and crisp, is of the most tender, and entirely loses 
the pithy heart found in many large growing varieties. It has very large handsome 
long roots, matures very early, carries only a medium top, with a purple neck, 
and for winter keep cannot be equalled. As an exhibition variety, as well as for 
the market and the table, its distinctive appearance will make it attractive and 
quickly set up a demand.
