JOHNSON & STOKES, PHILADELPHIA. 



THE FINEST OF AIX LATE PEAS. 



A remarkably fine, new English variety, deserving the strongest praise. Height, two feet, literally covered with large 

 handsome pods. In quality none can equaj it. The above cut is a correct representation of the size of the pods, which are 

 often over six inches in length, and contnin from nine to ten very large, fine flavored peas. It is more sensitive to cold or 

 wet weather tlian any other wrinkled sort, and on this account should not be sown until the ground is warm. Mr. Robert 

 Nichols, a noted market g.irdener of Philadelphia, gathered, the past season, " twenty-one bushels from one peck of seed," 

 which will give some idea of its wonderful productiveness. Pkt., lOc; pint, 35c.; qt., 60c., post-paid. Qt.,45c.; peck, S2.50; 

 bush., S9.50, by freight or express.
