. Dreer's garden calendar for 1888. Seeds Catalogs; Nursery stock Catalogs; Gardening Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs. We consider this one of the finest Tomatoes ever sent out. It is of very large size and fine flavored; for slicing it will be found excellent, as it has few seeds and is very solid. The Tomatoes are borne in clusters of 4 to 7, ripen evenly, and remain firm when fully ripe. Of a bright red color free from purple tinge. As a table variety it will meet the views of the most fastidious, and should be largely grown by gardeners who court the best trade. Pkt., 15 cts.; 2 for 25 ct
