Summary[edit]

Description

THE TURNIP. 109
or six inches in length, an inch and a half in diameter at the
crown, and weighing eight or ten ounces ; skin white, or yel-
lowish-white ; flesh white, dry, very firm, and sugary ; leaves
small, deep green, spreading. Half early, and one of the
best of the dry-fleshed varieties.
Golden Ball. M'Int. Vil.
Yellow Globe.
Bulb produced mostly within the earth, nearly globular,
and very smooth and symmetrical ; skin bright yellow below
ground, greenish above ; leaves compara-
tively small, spreading; flesh pale yellow,
sweet, and well flavored, but not so fine-
grained as that of many other varieties. It
is a good table turnip ; and with the Robert-
son's Golden Stone, which it greatly resem-
bles, the most valuable for cultivation, where
large-sized garden turnips are required. Its GowenBaii.
size is about that of the last named. Average specimens
measure four inches in diameter, nearly the same in depth,
and weigh from twelve to fourteen ounces.
Green Globe. Law.
Green-top White Globe.
Roots of a fine, globular shape, with a small neck and tap-
root ; very white below, and green above, the surface of the
ground ; of medium size, hardy, and firm in texture, but
scarcely so much so as the Green Round ; than which it
arrives at maturity rather earlier. It is somewhat larger than
the White Norfolk ; has large, deep-green foliage ; grows
strongly ; and produces extraordinary crops : but it soon
becomes spongy, and often decays in autumn or early in
winter.
A sub-variety, of larger size and with softer flesh, is known

by the name of Hungarian Green-top Globe.

This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
Public domain

This work is in the public domain in its country of origin and other countries and areas where the copyright term is the author's life plus 70 years or fewer.


This work is in the public domain in the United States because it was published (or registered with the U.S. Copyright Office) before January 1, 1929.


This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag.


Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag.
