Unicorn. Einhornwurzel.

No. 1664. - This is a hardy annual plant with peculiarly shaped seed-pods, which, when young and tender, are highly prized for pickling, and by many are considered superior to cucumbers. The pods are produced in large numbers and should be gathered when about half grown, as they are worthless when the flesh hardens.

Culture

No. 1665. - Sow them in April or May, in open ground, about three feet apart in each direction, as the plants spread considerably when growing. They are cultivated easily.
