This new variety is one of the most A'aluable early dwarf wrinkled peas in 

 The introducer describes it as follows: 



cultivation. 



"This very desirable pea grows to a 

 uniform height of one foot. Remarliabh- 

 hardy and productive, besides being ear- 

 lier than all the wrinkled poas, it has 

 been impartially tested the past s'x 

 years in various sections of the UnitcMl 

 States and Canada. It is so hardy jnid 

 vigoi-ous that it may be safely planted in 

 early spring with any smooth variety, 

 and counted on for table use almost as 

 soon, while the quality is far superior. 

 During the eight .years that I have lieeu 

 developing these peas, they never fai'e 1 

 to be well matured for table use within 

 fifty days from planting, with ordinary 

 garden culture. Pods lai-ge, with from 

 five to seven large peas in a pod. Yery 

 tender and fine flavored."

KOTT S EXCELSIOR PEA. 



The introducer says of this new variety: ^Ye are indebted to Europe for some of our 

 very best peas, but not all the new varieties introduced there suit our climate. This new 

 A-ariety, however, is one of the really fine peas that resist the long droughts which we some- 

 times experience. We have found it to stand well under the scorching rays of the sun, and 

 it is not subject to mildew. It is a green, wrinkled, main crop variety, growing to about two 

 to two and one-half feet in height. The pods are very large, slightly curved, produced mostly 

 in pairs, and all over the vine from bottom to top. The peas are large, oval, deep green, anil 

 of a delicious flavor when cooked. They are so packed in the pods that when opened it would 

 almost seem impossible that they could be contained in the pod. The vines are very sturdy, 

 and being of a branching habit this variety can be sown more thinly than most varieties. Its 

 season is just right to succeed the Juno, as it comes into bearing when that splendid variety 

 is about finished. Price per pkt. 5 cts.. pt. 25cts., qt. 50 cts., pk. $2.00. 



New Juno Pea. 



NEW JUNO PEA. 



The introducer says: "In common with Heroine, to which it bears some resemblance, it 

 is of British origin, and is one of the few sorts from that source that are capable of with- 

 standing the extremes of temperature of the American climate. It is a main crop variety, of 

 vigorous constitution, which shows itself in the strong, handsome, branching plant. It is 

 two feet in height, requiring little or no brushing, though, being a free-clinging variety, it is 

 greatly helped by it. It produces an abundance of the finest peas possible, the vines being 

 actually laden with pods. These are stout and heavy in form, very little curved, dark green, 

 usually growing in pairs, containing from seven to nine peas of the finest quality, which so 

 thoroughly fill the pod as to make it almost cylindrical in shape. The peas, too, possess the 

 admirable faculty of preserving their tenderness and superb flavor long after they are young, 

 and also retain their attractive dark green color when served at table. Price per pkt. 5 cts., 

 pt. 25 cts., qt. 50 cts., pk. $2.00.
