Bolgiano's "Enormous" Early Bush Limas 



1035. This wonderful new Bush Lima is the earliest, largest and 

 best of all large Limas; the vigorous bushes are crowded with enormous 

 pods. The delicious green beans are larger than any other Lima Bean. It 

 yields continuously from June until frost. Both the pods and the luscious 

 flavored beans are much larger and considerably thicker than the Large 

 Bush Lima. The plants grow upright about 30 inches high and 24 inches 

 across, with luxuriant sheltering foliage, and are very sturdy. Often five 

 to eight pods, measuring 5 to 6 inches long by 1 J^ inches wide, are borne in 

 clusters on one stalk. The shelled beans, either green or dry, are nearly 

 tjvice as thick as the large Bush Limas. "Enormous" Bush Limas will 

 outyield Large Bush Limas by 33J^ per cent, on account of the greater 

 size of both pods and beans. The Seed Beans are greenish and very hand- 

 some, while the dried beans of the Large Bush Limas are pure white. Pkt.

*'Fordhook" Bush Lima 



The only stiffly erect bush form of the popular "Potato" Lima 



Both pods and beans are twice the size of Dreer's Bush Lima 



and more than half again as large as the Dreer's Pole Lima 



1119. Fordhook Bush Lima is altogether unique. Nothing like it has 

 ever been seen before. Of strong, erect, true bushlike growth, never run- 

 ning, the buslies averaging 20 to 30 inches in height by 20 to 24 inches 

 across the top. The foliage is of heavy texture and very dark green in 

 color. The stalks that produce the blossoms are thrown out from the 

 lateral and main stalks; the pods are borne in "clusters" of from four to 

 eight. The pods resemble those of the Dreer's Bush Lima, but average 

 more than double the size, measuring from 4 to 5} 2 inches long, about 1 J^ 

 inches wide, by as much as three-fourths of an inch thick. The pods con- 

 tain three to five large beans, with an average of four. 



Fordhook Bush Lima is fully 33 J^ per cent heavier cropper and there- 

 fore is bound to entirely displace the Dreer's Bush Lima. In season it is 

 from four to six days earlier. Pkt. 10c. Pt. 25c. Qt. 45c. 2 Qts. 80c.

Giant Podded "Emerald Isle" Pole Lima 



1032. A marvelous yielder of great clusters of gigantic pods fdled with 

 extra large, thick, most deliclously flavored green Lima Beans. The skin 

 is thin and lender, but will not crack when .shipped to market. Emerald 

 Isle Limas are the largest podded, largest seeded, heaviest cropper of all 

 Limas. They are earlier, more prolific, and much larger podded than the 

 King of the Garden. The mammoth pods measure 7 to 8' 2 inches in length 

 and li4 to 2 inches in width, and are borne in great clusters which stands 

 out from the foliage. The vines branch or stool out from the main stalk 

 close to the ground, each vein producing 10 to 15 lateral branches. These 

 produce tremendous growth of exceptionally vigorous vines, which grow 

 10 to 12 feet in height and produce tremendous crops of immense well-filled 

 pods from the bottom to the top. Kmeraid Isle Pole Lima Beans continue 

 to bear most abundantly until killed by frost. This is the most per- 

 fect Pole Lima 

 Bean introduced. 

 It grows green; 

 it dries green; it 

 stays green. It 

 excels all others.

Florida "High Bush" Egg Plant 



99. The Florida High Bush Egg Plant 



has proved of the greatest value to the Southern 

 truckers and shippers. It has been grown in 

 Florida for the past three or four years. It is 

 remarkable for its vigorous growth and productive- 

 ness, is very hardy and will stand more cold weather 

 than the New York Improved. The hot sun does 

 not blight the blossoms. The plant has a charac- 

 teristic leaf, unlike any other Egg Plant we know 

 of. It grows from 3 to 4 feet high, erect and sturdy, 

 free from thorns. Fruit is large, oblong in shape 

 and purple, though not so deep a color as the New 

 York Improved. It resists drought and wet 

 weather to a wonderful degree, partly on account of 

 its strong upright growth. It stands the cold 

 weather better, and is the only Egg Plant that 

 stands shipping from this section to the Northern 

 markets under almost all circumstances. It is of 

 a large size, first-class shape and superior flavor.
