Nurseries (Horticulture) Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Nursery stock Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Bulbs (Plants) Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Catalogs; Gardening Pennsylvania Pittsburgh Equipment and supplies Catalogs. Scarlet Globe Radishes Radishes Crimson Giant Forcing. This com- bines exceptional size with very rapid de- velopment for such a large variety. It will reach double the size of the three forcing va- rieties described opposite during almost the same time of development without becoming pithy. The flesh is alwavs firm and crisp. Pkts. 5c. and 10c, oz. 20c, y4lb. 60c. Scarlet Button. Another strain of the extra-early, rapid forcing type of Radishes. In common with Non Plus Ultra and Saxa de- scribed opposite, this has small tops. The roots are flatter however, being more inclined to turnip-shape than to the globe-shape. Color of skin, quality of flesh, etc., are excellent. Pkts. 5 cts. and 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., y4lb. 60 cts. Rosy Gem. The best known and most perfect type of the ever-popular Scarlet Turnip White-Tipped Radish. The roots are almost globe-shaped and have a well-defined white zone and white taproot, which makes Rosy Gem particularly showy. Develops within 30 to 35 days. Pkts. 5 cts. and 10 cts., oz. 20 cts., Vilb. 60 cts. White Box. A turnip-shaped sort of slightly later maturity than any of the others described above. It has the advantage, however, of resisting heat better. Equally suitable for forcing or outdoors. Pure white skin. Pkts. 5c. and 10c, oz. 15c, Vilb. 45c Early Olive-shaped and Half-long Kinds The olive-shaped type is also known as the "Rocket" Radish, particularly in t'le Fast. Scarlet Olive-shaped White-Tip. Also known as French Breakfast. Deep rose, tipped white; very early. Pkts. 5 cts. and 10 cts., oz. 15 cts., Vilb. 50 cts. Red Olive-shaped. Deep Scarlet. Pkts. 5c. and 10c, oz. 15c, Vilb. 50c White Olive-shape
