thing, less exacting in care.

sort both for stock feeding and table use. Flesh yellow, solid 
and sweet. Is globe shaped, of large size, of fine quality and

The roots of this vegetable are appetizing and nutritious, 
and the flavor is like that of Oysters. Salsify succeeds best in 
a light, well enriched soil, which should be stirred to a good 
depth. Coarse and fresh manure should be avoided, as it will 
cause the roots to become irregular and branched. Sow early 
and quite deep, giving the general culture recommended for 
Parsnip.

long, smooth, white, tapering roots less likely to branch than 
those of other sorts. Pkt. 5c; oz. 15c; % Ib. 50c.
