The Long Lemon is easily harvested, and is very productive, yielding nearly the same quantity to the acre as the Long Orange; which variety it much resembles in its general character, and with which it is frequently, to a greater or less extent, intermixed.
Long Surrey.
Long Red. James's Scarlet.
This variety much resembles the Long Orange: the roots, however, are more slender, the heart is smaller, and the color deeper.
"It is popular in some parts of England, and is extensively grown over the Continent."
Long White.
Common White.
Root produced entirely below ground, regularly fusiform, fifteen inches long, by about three inches in its largest diameter. Skin white, stained with russet-brown. Flesh white, and generally considered sweeter than that of the colored varieties.
The Common White has been but little cultivated since the introduction of the White Belgian; a variety much more productive, though perhaps not superior either in flavor, or fineness of texture.
