Early Mammoth Radish
Also known as “Shepherd” and “Chartier.” this radish is the largest ever cultivated, growing to the enormous size of two to three feet in length and eight inches in diameter. In quality and flavor it is unsurpassed. Its general color is bright pink. Its growth is very rapid, maturing for table and market use in twenty-five to thirty days from time of sowing. It remains tender and crisp for four to six weeks after it is ready for use, and is good for either spring, summer or fall. Pkt., 10c; oz., 20c; lb., $1.00
