 very early, while the wrinkled sorts could not be planted until milder weather; but there ha^ been the need of an '-'^'^/"^O

AM£BR PEA. "^^ 



This variety of blue-seeded peas is distinct, and produces its handsome pods 

 in pairs. It is an early variety, and, like all other round, smooth-seeded peas, 

 is quite hardy, and can be planted very early in the spring. It is also a good variety 

 for making repeated sowings for succession, as it is not affected by the early 

 summer heat. The vines, which grow from 3 to 4 feet high, are very thrifty 

 and good bearers. The pods are dark green, large, curved and very broad, 

 alw.ays well filled with large peas. The quality is all that could be desired, 

 being sweet and tender. The large size and handsome deep green color of the 

 pods make it a good variety for market purposes, bringing high prices. Pkt., 

 10 c;s., postpaid ; pt., 20 cts.; qt., 35 cts; \ peck, $1.00; peck, $1.75; bu.,

D\f ARF TEI.EPHOISE PEA. 



This variety is the result of many years' experimenting, with the view of pro- 

 ducing a pea wiih dwarf vines, bearing large, handsome pods and peas of 

 highest quality, without the long vines of the Telephone, and to grow more 

 dwarf than the Stratagem. In all these points our grower has been successful, 

 f»r here we have a variety which, under the best culture, will only grow IS 

 inches high. It is of dwarf, stocky habit, healthy, vigorous growth and veiv 

 productive. In season, medium, from 5 to 7 days earlier than Stratagem. The 

 pods are long, frequently mea-^uring 5 inches in length, broad, straight, rounded 

 or curved at the end, remarkably well filled, often containing nine or ten peas, 

 color pale green, thick and of good lasting quality for market purposes. When 

 fit for talile use the peas are of a very large size, tender and delicious flavor, but 

 when dry are light green and mucla shriveled, denoting unusually tender and 

 delica'e texture. Pkt., 10 cts., po.-.tp,aid ; pt., 2-) cts.; qt., 40 cts.; \ peck, $1.50 ;

Cakdin.»l Globe Radish. 



CARDINAL GI.OBE 

 RADISH. 



The best forcing- variety. 



Our seed of this leading forcing Radish is the 

 purest on the market, having been continually im- 

 proved both in color and shape. The Radishes 

 grow globular in shape, and are of a most brilliant 

 cardinal-red color. It will stand considerable heat; 

 therefore it is a quick forcer, and the quality is fine, 

 being crisp and tender. It is by far the best variety 

 for forcing, and also does well in open ground. 

 The beautiful appearance and color of this Radish 

 make it a good seller. Market gardeners who have 

 been using our strain of Cardinal Globe Radish 

 for several years past, say that it is the purest, 

 finest colored, and the best in every particular.
