Nursery stock Connecticut New Haven Catalogs; Vegetables Seeds Catalogs; Flowers Seeds Catalogs; Plants, Ornamental Catalogs; Gardening Equipment and supplies Catalogs; Commercial catalogs Connecticut New Haven. The Emerald Cucumber. Livingston's Emer- ald possesses a rich, dark green color and spineless skin. The fruit sets early, and its vigorous vines abound in long, straight, hand- some fruits of the most desirable qualities. As a sheer, the flesh is peculiarly crisp and tender, and the flavor most pleasing. The young fruit being dark green, straight and tender, makes an ex- cellent pickle, and when ripe none excels it for making sweet pickles. For Forcing. For those who grow under glass, or for long distance shipping, it will prove a boon, on account of holding its deep green color so long; besides, its size and uniformity will suit such growers much better than many of the kinds usually recommended for this purpose. It is almost free from "warts and spines," so much so that it may be called spineless. As an all purpose table or market variety, whether for gardeners' or farmers* use, it cannot be surpassed. Price per pkt., 5c.; per oz., 15c.; per lb., $1,00. Florence or Naples Fennel. This is a variety of the fennel family that is cultivated for its leaf stalks like celery, growing heavy at the base and almost forming in bulb form. It has a peculiarly agreeable flavor and is highly esteemed by the sous of Italy, either raw or cooked. Price per. pkt., 5c.; per oz., 15c.; per lb., Florence or Naples Fennel,.
