' J °^"u> Boston Market.âThe most popular variety is the Boston Market. It forms a clus- ter of heads, instead of a single large one, and is remarkably crisp and tender. A good vari- etey for light soils. Dwarf Golden HeartâVery fine; when blanched the heart is of a waxy golden yellow, rendering it a most striking and showy variety for either market or private use. Half Dwarf White Solid.âIs of rather a yellowish white when blanched, and entirely solid, possessing the peculiar nutty flavor of the dwarf kinds, with more vigor of growth. Dwarf White Solid.âDwarf, white, or stiff close habit; sol- id, crisp, and juicy. Keeps in good order later in the season than any other variety. White Plume.â The stalks and heart are white, of good eat- ing quality, crisp, solid, and of nutty flavor; is ornamental, resemb- ling an ostrich feather. Matchless Red Solid.âAn improve- ment on the old Red, very compact, solid, and of excellent quality.â The red varieties keep better through the win- ter, and are yearly be- coming more popular. Root is cooked and sliced, used with vinegar;.
