Henderson's "Palmetto.' 



Larger, Earlier, more Regular and Even In Size, and 

 more prolific than any other Asparagus Grown. 



The Palmetto is superior to any other As- 

 paragus; it is not only much earlier, but is 

 also a better yielder, and is more even and regular in 

 its growth. Average bunches, containing 15 shoots, 

 measure 13^ inches in circumference and weigh about 2 

 pounds. The Palmetto is equally well adapted for all 

 sections North and South ; it is less susceptible to the 

 Asparagus disease than any other variety, and has con- 

 tinued to yield profitable crops in sections where planta- 

 tions of other varieties have been entirely devastated. 

 Its quality is unequaled. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. oz., 

 60c. } 4 lb., $1.50 lb. 



Colossal. The standard variety. The shoots are of the 

 largest size, very productive and of the best quality.

"LONGFELLOW" 



GREEN 

 PODDED 



BUSH BEAN 



Long green pods. Exceedingly prolific Always solid. Delicious 

 - flavor. Wonderfully tender. Remarkably early. 



This is an ideal String Bean. The pods are G% 

 inches long, pale, soft green in color, perfectly straight 

 and round. They are free from that woolly inner lin- 

 ing of tough skin which we associate with old beans, 

 and what little string exists is not developed until the 

 pod is quite old. The flavor is most delicious, and it 

 has the peculiarity of preserving its delicate color 

 almost intact when prepared for the table. It is re- 

 markably early, being ready for use four days in 

 advance of any variety of merit. Its bearing qualities 

 are unexcelled, and it matures Its crop very regularly, 

 even under adverse conditions. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 

 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.25 peck, $8.00 bush. 



"7 take this opportunity of giving you my experience with 

 Longfellow Bush Bean. It was so wn on the same date with Early 

 Six Weeks and other 'Earliest' beans. I gathered my llrst table 

 beans from the latter but only three days ahead of tlie Longfel- 

 low, but from the time of picking first beans from the Longfellow 

 everything else has been discarded by Gen. Brown's family, and the only 

 bean they will have on the table is Longfellow. From four rows I have 

 been gathering daily for three weeks in large quantity, and the vines are 

 still bearing heavily. I am glad to endorse it; it is the best bean I have 

 grown in twenty years' practice."
