MARY WASHINGTON. A heavy yielding 
strain, producing uniform, long, tender, rap- 
idly growing shoots. An excellent variety for 
market or home gardeners.

strain from the Washington variety, much 
heavier stalk and a greater producer than

ous and heavy yielding asparagus with 
uniform, good tight buds of bluish purple.

(New). Matures earlier than 
any other known variety. Good cuttings 
can be had one year after planting even 
from our 2 year size roots. In looks Paradise 
asparagus is similar to other varieties of 
the Washington type. The flavor of Paradise 
is much milder than other varieties. Even 
if you only have a few square feet of space 
in your garden set some of the new Paradise 
this year. You will be well repaid for the 
small investment made. PRICES OF PARA-
