BURPEE'S BUSH Lima. 



BURPEE S BUSH LIMA. 



BURPEE'S BUSH LIMA is 

 universally conceded to be 

 altogether unique, and the 

 most valuable novelty of tlie 

 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 each 

 plant develops into a magnificent cir- 

 cular bush, from two feet to three 

 feet in diameter. The bush character 

 is thoroughly established, not one 

 plant in a thousand showing any dis 

 position to "run." It is an immense 

 yielder, each bush bearing from 50 to 

 200 of the handsome large pods, wel 

 tilled with very large beans, which 

 are identical in size and luscious 

 flavor to the well-knoicn large pole 

 Lirnas, 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 attached to the 

 use of poles. Plant when soil be- 

 comes warm, in rows 2 feet apart and 

 fully 12 inches between the plants. 



Price per pkt. 7 cts; pt. 30. cts., qt.

DREER'S BUSH LIMA BEAN. 



This is one of the best of all the dwarf Limas, 

 being superior in flavor to the dwarf varieties of the 

 Sieva Lima. 



It grows about two'feet high, and is of vigorous 

 branching habit, maturing early; it is very product- 

 ive; 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 succulent 

 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., 50 cts. 



HENDERSON'S BUSH LT3IA. 



This Bash Lima grows without aid of 'stakes or 

 poles, in compact bush form, from 15 to 18 inches 

 high, and produces enormous crops of delicious Lima 

 Beans, which can be as easily gathered as the com- 

 mon garden bush beans. It is at least two weeks 

 earlier than any of the climbing Limas, and pro- 



duces continuous crop from the time it comes into 

 bearing until frost, and being enorraousl}- product- 

 ive, a very small patch will keep a family supplied 

 with this splendid vegetable throughout the season. 

 The beans are of the size of the Small Lima, and ol 

 the same delicious quality as the Pole Lima. A fine 

 variety for market gardeners. Per pkt. 5 cts., pt. 25 

 cts., qt. 40 cts., pk. $1.50. 



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 absolutelj' stringless, cooking ten- 

 der and delicious. The monster pods average 10 to 

 14 inches in length, as shown in cut, and area rich 

 golden color, making a most handsome appearance 

 either on the plant or on the table. The Yosemite 

 combines size, productiveness and quality 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. 25 

 cts., qt. 50 cts., pk. Sl.f-O.
