IMPROVED HUNGARIAN 



HONEY WATERMELON. 



The improvement is in increased size of melons, but the 

 quality remains the same as in the original variety. While 

 not quite large enough for market purposes, the quality makes 

 up for size when grown for home use. The melons grow 

 nearly round in shape, skin is a very dark green, flesh rich 

 red, flavor delicious, sugary and melting. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 

 20 cts.; I lb., 60 cts.; lb., $2.00. 



MONTE CRISTO, or KLECKLEY 

 SWEETS WATERMELON. 



Where sweetness combined with large size is desired this 

 variety will surely please, as it not only produces melons 

 above the medium size, but has that crisp, sugary flavor so 

 much desired in a Watermelon. The vines are of vigorous 

 growth, and produce a large crop of melons, which are of good 

 size, oval shape, skin dark green and somewhat mottled. 

 The rind is thin, thus making it undesirable as a variety to 

 ship long distances, but sufficiently tough to stand carrying to 

 nearby markets. The heart is large and solid and flavor all 

 that could be desired. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 15 cts.; J lb., 40 

 cts.; lb., $1.25. 



Improved Hungarian Honey Watermelon. 



DREER'S 



Dwarf Perfection 

 Parsley. 



This is a fine and most valuable 

 Parsley. The habit is regular and 

 compact, and the exquisitely fine and 

 prettily curled leaves are set so closely 

 that the form of the plant is almost 

 semi-globular. The color is a wonder- 

 ful bright pea-green, and flavor sur- 

 passes all other Parsley. This variety 

 combines the qualities of a fine culinary 

 herb with those of a beautiful decora- 

 tive plant, and is equally valuable for 

 garnishing purposes and borders. Seed 

 "very scarce, but we have secured a 

 limited quantity. Pkt., 10 cts.; oz., 

 75 cts. 



Chinese Giant Pepper. 



CHINESE GIANT 

 PEPPER. 



This most desirable variety, of recent 

 introduction, is undoubtedly the largest 

 sweet Pepper ever offered. The ex- 

 tremely large size of the Peppers is a 

 great surprise and delight to all who 

 grow them, The 'plant is of strong, 

 vigorous growth, about two feet high 

 when fully grown, and a very prolific 

 bearer of the large Peppers, which set 

 closely towards the bottom of the plant. 

 The Peppers grow much larger than 

 the Ruby King, which, heretofore, has 

 been a favorite variety, and are of a 

 bright scarlet color when ripe. The 

 flesh is quite thick, very mild and re- 

 markably sweet, without the least trace 

 of fieriness. Pkt., 10 cts.; £ oz., 60 

 cts.; oz., $1.00.

New Pea, the Harbinger. 



NEW PEA, 



THE HARBINGER. 



This variety originated in England, and, like most 

 Peas from that country, it is of very fine flavor. A 

 remarkable feature is the extremely dwarf character 

 of the plant, which seldom grows taller than eight 

 inches, but is literally covered with large, well-filled 

 pods. It is far superior to the well-known American 

 Wonder. The pods, however, are of same shape, but 

 are broader and better filled, besides they mature 

 earlier. Pkt., 10 cts.; pt., 25 cts. (postpaid, 33 

 cts.) qt., 40 cts. (postpaid, '55 cts.); 4 qts., $1.50; 

 peck, $2.50. 



CARTER'S DAISY, OR 

 DWARE TELEPHONE PEA. 



This is a dwarf variety, Dealing large, handsome 

 pods like Telephone, but without long vines, and 

 grows more dwarf than Stratagem. It is of dwarf, 

 stocky habit, healthy, vigorous growth and very pro- 

 ductive. In season, medium, from 5 to 7 days earlier 

 than Stratagem. The pods are long, frequently 

 measuring 5 inches in length, broad, rounded or 

 curved at the end, remarkably well filled ; color pale 

 green, thick and of good lasting quality. Pkt., 10 

 cts.; pt., 20 cts. (postpoaid, 28 cts.); qt.. 35 cts. 

 (postpaid, 50 cts.) ; 4 qts., $1.25; peck, $2.00.
