Early White Vienna
Dwarf, small, early; bulb handsome, firm, glossy, white; leaves few and small, and slender stems. The best variety for table use, but should be used when young, and not larger than an early garden turnip. All varieties are tough and stringy when overgrown.

Large Green
Bulb large, measuring seven or eight inches in diameter, and often weighing eight to ten pounds. Leaves large and numerous; skin pale, whitish green; hardy, quite late, and used largely for feeding stock.

Large Purple
This is identical with the preceding, except in color, the bulb being purple, and the leaf-stems and nerves tinged with purple.
