22 Bolgiano's Wonderful New Early 



Scarlet Mammoth Pepper 



163. The largest, earliest maturing and most productive very 

 largre sweet pepper. The plant is vigorous and upright, growing 

 larger than that of the Chinese Giant and produces much more 

 fruit. The fruits ripen earlier than any of the very large sorts 

 on the market, and average heavier, as the fiesh is unusually 

 thick. Color deep crimson when matured; flavor very mild. We 

 consider this without a doubt the most desirable very large pep- 

 per yet introduced. Pkt. 10c. li Oz. 20c. Oz. 35c. 2 Ozs. 60c.

Enormous "Chinese Giant" Peppers 



Double the Size of Ruby King Peppers, One of the Largest Mild Red Peppers 

 _ 226. Chinese Giant is very productive for so larce a pepper, while its enormous 

 size and magnificent appearance make it sell most readily. The plants are vigorous in 

 growth but of stocky habit, seldom more than two feet in height. They are well 

 branched and thickly set with enormous fruits. Frequently half a dozen peppers will 

 touch each other, as if on a single bunch. The strong growth of plants enables them 

 to mature the gigantic fruits only slightly later than our well-known Ruby King. 



Chinese Giant produces uniformly monstrous peppers of thick blocky form and 

 most brilliant glossy scarlet. They grow 4 to 5 inches broad at the top and are of equal 

 length, divided into four or more large ridges; when ripe they are indented at the blos- 

 som end. The first fruits setin a cluster of three to five at base of the plant, and are 

 generally longer than those setting later on the upper branches, although the latter are 

 equally as broad. All are uniformly of most " enonnous" size. The flesh is extremely 

 mild — as sweet as an apple — and unusually thick. It makes an excellent salad sliced 

 and ser\'ed like tomatoes. The true seed of a selected strain — producing untfoiinly large 

 fruits — will always be high in price. Beware of "cheap" seed. Pkt. 10c. Ji Oz. 15c.
