* 60 Improved Fordhook Green Seeded Bush Lima Bean 



80 days. A True Bush Form, of the Famous Fordhook Bush Lima Bean, Producing Larger and Plumper Pods 



with Thicker, More Meaty, Always Green Beans 



This decided improvement of Fordhook Bush Lima is so fixed that 

 it will supersede that sort either for the home garden or market. Its 

 strong, erect, true bush-form plant produces a thicker growth of dark 

 green foliage, protecting the blossoms and pods from direct sun. The 

 larger and plumper pods are produced in clusters of from five to eight. 

 Each pod contains four to five thicker, more meaty, and plumper, 

 always green beans. Improved Fordhook Bush Lima yields a very- 

 heavy crop in about 80 days, just as early as the original stock.
