It bears pro- fusely its long golden-yellow pods in clusters of three to six from bottom to top of pole, and continues in bearing from the middle of July till the vines are cut by frost.

The color of the flesh is rich dark crimson, with very faint lighter colored rings. The flesh is sweet and crisp, free from objection- able earthy flavor. This beet is earlier than Crosby's and far more regular in character. It is free from very coarse roots; especially adapted for frame work; for first variety it is Dirego Beet. Pkt. Sc.; oz. 10c.
