509 Giant Laxtonian <& 



Very large, straight, pointed pods (62 days) 



One of the largest podded of all early dwarf varie- 

 ties and considered the best of its class for home or 

 market garden. Vines are vigorous, about 18 in. 

 tall, and produce a heavy crop of large pods, often 

 more than 4 in. long, each containing from 8 to 10 

 attractive dark green peas of the choicest quality. 

 The peas are almost double the size of other dwarf 



varieties. Pkt. 10?!; Vz lb. 25^; lb. 45f*; 2 lbs. 80d;

507 Maule's Potlatch * 



Also called Big Dinner or Dwarf Defiance (78 days)

 one of our most popular main-crop peas. Vines 

 grow from 2 to 3 ft. tall and bear an abundance of 

 rich green pods, 4>2 in. long, each containing 8 or 

 9 very large, luscious peas of a sweetness and flavor 

 that is hard to describe to those who have never 

 tasted such huge peas fresh from the garden.

 quality, and unusual productiveness. The dwarf, 

 vigorous vines average 18 in. in height and carry a 

 very heavy crop of large, deep bluish green pods 

 4 in. long, with as many as 8 or even 10 peas in a 

 pod. The green shelled peas have that same char- 

 acteristic bluish tone that makes the pods so 



distinctive. Pkt. lOsi ; Vz lb. 30(2; lb. 50?!; 2 lbs. 95?!;

491 American Wonder

 that grows only 1 ft. to 14 in. tall, and yet it is 

 loaded with pods. These pods are straight, blunt- 

 ended, and 3 in. long. They contain 5 to 8 tightly 

 packed peas. The quality is superb. This is the 

 smallest plant of all, standing sturdy in the wind-

WRINKLED SEEDED 

 510 Little Marvel & 



The home garden favorite (62 days) 



The characteristic, tightly packed pods have long 

 been familiar to gardeners. The peas are crowded 

 together until they are almost square (see picture). 

 Plants grow 18 in. tall and yield heavily; pods are 

 3 in. long and filled to capacity with 5 to 7 dark 

 green, bursting-with-sweetness peas. This variety 

 seems to be adapted to a wider area than any other 

 kind except Earliest of All.

497 Dwarf Telephone & 



Also known as Carter's Daisy (73 days) 



The vines are exceptionally thick and strong, re- 

 quiring no support although they grow over 2 ft. 

 tall. The yield is excellent, but the extremely fine 

 sweetness and flavor are the things that have made 

 the variety so popular. The pods are 4 to 5 in. long, 

 and contain 6 or more giant peas.

 loaded with dark green, straight, broad, and 

 pointed pods, i}4 in. long, each containing 7 to 10 

 bright green peas. The length of the vine makes 

 supports necessary, but correspondingly heavier 

 crops are obtained on a relatively small piece of land.
