HENDERSON'S BREAKFAST RADISHES. 
The Three “ROCKETS.” 
T he illustration gives an excellent idea of these splendid neAv 
Radishes. A dish composed of these three Rocket Radishes, 
prepared for the table, presents a most attractive appearance’ 
and we advise every lover of this vegetable to grow some of each. In 
addition to their bright appearance, it is necessary to state that they 
are absolutely the earliest varieties grown; they mature at exactly 
the same time, and grow so quickly that they never take on that strong, 
rank flavor which we associate with the later varieties. 
RED ROCKET RADISH. This variety has a very small top, which 
permits close planting—a great advantage when grown under glass. 
It is quite smooth, deep scarlet in color, with a very small root. 
The flesh is crisp and of good flavor. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 
16c. oz., 36c. } lb., $1.00 lb. 
WHITE ROCKET RADISH, A trifle heavier than Red Rocket. It 
has an equally small top; the root is pure white, while the color of 
the flesh is distinct, being of a clear waxy-white. {See cut.) Price, 
10c. pkt., 16c. oz., 36. i lb., $1.00 lb. 
WHITE-TIPPED ROCKET RADISH. This is the ideal first early 
Radish. For many years the old French Breakfast has held a fore¬ 
most place among all the varieties offered. We have now to offer 
a sort that possesses all of its merits, and, in addition, extreme 
earliness. The color is deep rose, tipped white at the base. The 
flavor is deliciously mild. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 16c. oz.,

HENDERSON^S SELECTION OF 
Early Round Radishes. 
EARLY ROUND DARK RED RADISH. The finest 
type of the Early Scarlet turnip-shaped class, producing 
liandsome, ball-shaped radishes of medium size, ready 
for use in about 20 days from sowing; surface smooth 
and of rich dark red; flesh white as snow, crisp and of 
mild flavor. It remains fit to use for a considerable 
time. {See cut.) Price, 6c. pkt., 10c. oz., 25c. J lb., 
76c. lb. 
WHITE-TIPPED EARLY SCARLET TURNIP RADISH. 
A superior strain of this variety, so popular both for 
outdoor culture and growing in frames; of medium size; 
shape very uniform and round; color bright scarlet, 
with a distinct white tip, contrasting vividly and making 
it very attractive; mild, crisp, white flesh; matures in 
2.S days. {See cut.) Price, 6c. pkt., 10c. oz., 25c. I lb., 
76c.lb. 
HENDERSON’S ROSE TURNIP RADISH. This is one 
of the best and most beautiful Radishes we have ever 
seen. It is similar to the round dark red in shape and 
size, and has a small, compact top and a miniature tap¬ 
root. It is very early, requiring only 23 days to mature, 
and remains in good condition for 10 days. Its tender¬ 
ness and delicate flavor, added to its charming rosy-pink 
color, render it very attractive. {See cut.) Price, 10c. 
pkt., 16c. oz., 36c. i lb., $1.00 lb. 
EARLY CRIMSON GIANT TURNIP RADISH. Double 
the size of any of the early turnip-shaped type. This 
variety develops to 5 and often 6 inches in circumference, 
weighing up to 1 ounce per bulb, or about four flimes 
the weight of similar sorts; but notwithstanding its 
immense size, does not get hollow or pithy, the flesh 
remaining sparklingly white, solid, crisp and juicy, 
and of the mildest flavor. The shape of the roots varies 
between round and almost oval, but the bright, deep 
crimson color of the skin remains quite constant. 
Excellent both for forcing and open-ground culture.
