(See Color Plate, Page 6) 



First in Quality — The Bean De Luxe 



For those who demand quality above all else, we 

 recommend Tendergreen. The pods are absolutely 

 stringless and fiberless, with a delicious flavor and a 

 melting tenderness that distinguishes them as the 

 ultimate in quality. Tendergreen is not an erratic 

 producer, but a dependable and prolific bearer. It is 

 one of the earliest beans in cultivation. The vigorous 

 plants average from 14 to 15 inches high, the stems 

 are stout and rigid, the foliage is heavy, glossy and 

 attractive. The pods are deep, rich green in color, 

 extremely brittle, perfectly round, and 6 to ty 2 

 inches long.

1 BOUNTIFUL 



. Flat, Green-Podded, Stringless 



Introduced by us thirty years ago, this superior, 

 stringless bush bean is in greater demand today 

 than any other variety in cultivation. The plant is 

 very vigorous, almost immune from disease, hardy, 

 early and prolific. It bears rich green pods, of im- 

 mense size, thick, broad, extra long, very uniform 

 in shape, solid, meaty, and of high quality, melt- 

 ingly tender and having a delicious flavor exclusively 

 their own. The pods are stringless and entirely free 

 from any tough, membranous lining when young, 

 and this tender "snap brittle" quality is retained 

 even into maturity.

(See Color Plate, Page 6) 



Stringless, Meaty, Rust-Resisting 



The "Henderson" Stringless Bush Bean is abso- 

 lutely stringless from the first to the last picking and 

 is quite free from rust. The vine is upright, strong and 

 healthy; about one and a half to two feet in height, 

 and bears a heavy crop of meaty, tender pods six to 

 seven inches in length in about seven weeks from plant- 

 ing the seed. The quality and flavor of the pods are 

 unexcelled, and even when canned they retain their 

 color and flavor just as if freshly picked from the vine.

 less, and of the highest quality.
