with luxuriant dark foliage, bearing pods 
medium green in color, 8% to 4 inches in

expect great things. Fit for table use 61 days 
from planting. Seed green, wrinkled, large in 
size. 
This variety is of the same growth 
Thomas Laxton as that of the Gradus, but is usually 
three to four days later for market. The pods are square at 
the ends instead of having a long, sloping point, and con- 
sidered by some to be of a better flavor than the Gradus.

an abundance of large, long pointed pods of a rich dark 
green color. Well filled with large luscious peas. For main
