DWARF WAX BEANS ...

IMPROVED GOLDEN WAX. This is one 

 of the handsomest beans we have ever seen, 

 being of dark rich golden yellow color 

 and of perfect shape. It is of grand qual- 

 ity, showing no string or coarseness even 

 when past its best.but is of tender, melt- 

 ing flavor at all stages of its growth. 

 For marketgardeners or private fam- 

 ilies, no better bush bean can be 

 planted. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 

 30c. qt., SI. 75 peck, $5.50 bushel. 



GOLDEN WAX. A strong-grow- 

 ing, distinct variety, at least a 

 week earlier than the Black Wax. 

 The pods are long, brittle and en- 

 tirely stringless. As a snap bean 

 it perhaps excels all others in ten- 

 derness and richness of flavor. 

 Seeds, when ripe, purple and 

 white. 10c. pkt., 15c. pt., '25c. qt., 

 $1.50 peck, $5.00 bushel. 



j^ eeneu's Rustless Golden Wax. ^ 



A strong-growing bush variety of re 

 markable vigor and freedom from rust ; it 

 sends out short tendrils on which pods are 

 formed in addition to those near the central 

 stalk of the plant, which accounts for its 

 wonderful productiveness, amounting, 

 under favorable conditions, to 100-fold. 



The pods are meaty and well filled, 

 thick-flat when young and semi-round later; of rich yellow color and fine quality, and entirely 

 stringless, even when old enough to shell. They are also free from that parehment-like lining 

 which makes many varieties tough, unless when very young. If the pods are picked as fast as 

 fo'ined, the plant continues to furnish a bountiful supply for a long season. 10c. pkt , 20c nt

VALENTINE, WAX. ftn Improved Extra Earlij Valentine Bean, with round wax pods. 



A striking acquisition has been obtained in the list of Wax Beans through the introduction of 

 this variety. Up till now there has been no variety of such prominence among Wax Beans that 

 could compare with that of the Valentine among green beans. We now have an excellent W;ix- 

 podded variety possessing in a remarkable degree the excellent features of this sort. It is very 

 early for a Wax Bean. A planting made on June r2th gave us a fair picking by July 28th — 16 days. 



Its value as a shipper leiiiainsto 

 be proved, but it is certainly very 

 tender, and almost without 

 string ; in fact, the pod is free 

 from any toughness whatever, 

 but is remarkably solid through- 

 out. It is handsome in appear- 

 ance, and while it is fair to say 

 that we have not yet seen it ex- 

 posed toconditions conducive to 

 the development of rust, yet we 

 think it will prove to be almost 

 rustless. (See cut.) 10c. pkt., 

 20c. pt.. 30c. qt., $1.60 peck, 

 $5.50 bushel. 



VALENTINE WAX BEAN. 



WflRDWELL'S KIDNEY WAX. 



This variety is very hardy,and 



both pod and plants are more 



robust than usual for a Wax 



Bean. The shape of the beans is 



distinct from all other Wax varieties, being of a perfect kidney shape. 



It produces a heavy crop of purely Wax pods, which are very long, flat, 



showy and not liable to rust or blister. Very early. 10c. pkt., 20c. 



pt., 30c. qt., $1.75 peck, .$6.00 bushel. 



YOSElvriTE MAMMOTH WAX. Thepodsfrequentlyattalnalength 

 often to fourteen inches, witjj the thickness of a man's finger, and are 

 nearly all solid pulp, and »ra enormously productive. They are a 

 rich golden color, and are absolutely stringless, cooking tender and 

 delicious. We would again call attention to the necessity of planting, 

 this grand variety nearly twice as wide apart as ordinarv bush beans..
