NOVELTIES AND SPECIALTIES IN VEGETABLE SEEDS. 



DRBKR'S BUSH LIMA BEAN. 



The past season's experience has again demonslraled the value and utility of our Dreer's Bush Lima Bean, which has every- 

 where given the highest satisfaction and has fully sustained our claim to be the best of the new varieties of dwarf Lim:\s. It pos- 

 sesses all the good qualities of the Dreer's Improved Lima, 

 which has long been admitted the best in quality of the pole 

 Limas, as well as the most attractive and desirable for table 

 use. The Dreer's Bush Lima is of vigorous bushy habit, groov- 

 ing from IJ to 2 feet high, and producing pods in great abun- 

 dance. The beans grow close together in the pods, producing 

 3 or 4, and sometimes 5 in a pod, and are very thick, sweet and 

 succulent. It ripens fully ten days earlier than the pole Lima, 

 and requires no poles or stakes whatever. Owing to the dry 

 weather of the past summer our stock is again limited.

BURPEE'S BUSH EIMA 

 BEAN. 



This remarkable novelty is a true bush form of the Large 

 Lima Beau, which originated a few years ago in Chester county, 

 Pa., where a single dwarfed plant was found in a large field, 

 the entire crop of which had been destroyed by cut worms- 

 The permanency of this strain appears to have been fixed from 

 its origin, as successive crops have developed and perpetuated 

 the dwarf fomi without variation. It is not as early nor as free 

 a bearer as the Dreer's Bush Lima, but will no doubt be largely 

 grown in the future, particularly where poles are inaccessible or 

 undesirable.
