YOSEMITE MAMMOTH 

 WAX BUSH BEAN. 



This wonderful wax variety is the 

 forerunner of a race of giants among 

 beans. The pods are nearly all solid 

 pulp and absolutely stringless, cook- 

 ing tender and delicious. The mon- 

 ster pods average 10 to 14 inches in 

 length, as shown in cut, and are a rich 

 golden in color, making a most hand- 

 some appearance either on the plant 

 or on the table. The Yosemite com- 

 bines size, productiveness and qual- 

 ity in one variety, and is the nearest 

 approach to perfection in Wax Beans. 

 The plant is a remarkably vigorous 

 one, and if the pods are kept closely 

 picked, new ones will continue to be 

 produced, and a marvelously large 

 crop will be obtained. Per pkt. 5 cts., 

 pt. 20 cts., qt. 40 cts., pk. $1.25, bu. 

 $5.00.

BUSH LIMA BEANS. 



BURPEE'S BUSB LIMA. 



Tbis variety is universally conceded to t>e al- 

 together unique, and the MOST VALUABLE 

 NOVELTY OF THE AGE. It is the first and 

 only true bush form of the luscious large Lima 

 Bean. IT COMES ABSOLUTELY TRUE 

 FROM SEED. The bushes grow eighteen to 

 twenty inches high, of stout growth and always 

 erect, yet branching so vigorously that eacli 

 plant develops into a magnificent circular bush, 

 from two feet to three feet in diameter. The 

 bush character is thoroughly established. It is 

 an immense yielder, each bush bearing from 50 

 to 200 of the handsome large pods, well filled 

 with very large beans, which are identical in 

 size and LUSCIOUS FLAVOR to the well- 

 known large pole Limas. By the introduction 

 of this most valuable novelty the largest and 

 best Lima Beans can now be raised in quantity 

 at small cost, without the expense and labor at- 

 tached to the use of poles. Plant when soil be- 

 comes warm, in rows 2 feet apart and fully 12 

 inches between the plants. Pinch out the top 

 when about one foot high which will cause 

 plants to branch more. Per pkt. 5 cts., pt. 25 

 cts., qt. 50 cts. 



DREER'S BUSH LIMA. 



This is one of the best of the dwarf Limas, 

 being superior in flavor to the dwarf varieties 

 of the Sieva Lima. 



It grows about two feet high, and is of vigor- 

 ous branching habit. It is very productive; the 

 beans in a green state are not quite as large as 

 the Large Lima, but grow closer together in the 

 pod, are thicker, sweeter, more tender and suc- 

 culent and remain green longer after maturing. 

 For small, private gardens, and wherever the 

 use of poles is inconvenient or undesirable, it 

 will prove especially valuable. This bean should 

 be planted in rows two feet apart, and the 

 plants one foot apart in the row. One plant 

 alone is sufficient to a hill. 



Per pkt. 5 cts., pt. 25 cts., qt. 45. 



HENDERSON'S BUSH LIMA. 



This Bush Lima grows without aid of stakes 

 or poles, in compact bush form, from 15 to 18 in. 

 high, and produces enormous crops of delicious 

 Lima Beans, which can be as easily gathered 

 as the common garden bush beans. It is at least 

 two weeks earlier than any of the climbing Li- 

 mas, and produces continuous crop from the 

 time it comes into bearing until frost, and being 

 enormously productive, a very small patch will 

 keep a family supplied with this splendid veg- 

 etub.'e throughout the season. The beans are of 

 the si^e of the Small Lima, and of the same de- 

 licious quality as the Pole Lima. A fine va- 

 riety for market gardeners. Per pkt. 5 cts., pt< 

 25 cts., qt. 40 cts., pk. $1.25.
