DWARF LIMA BEANS. 



These may safely rank as the most valuable 

 regetable introduction of recent years. Lima 

 beans have always been popular, but many have 

 been prevented from growing them from tlie fact 

 that poles are required for their successful cul- 

 ture. This objection has nowbeen removed and am pleased to pre- 

 sent the thi'ee leading varieties, from which my customers may 

 make selection. Each of them possess their own peculiar points 

 of merit. I earnestly liope that all who have not grown Dwarf 

 Limas will try them. No garden is complete, no table is properly 

 supplied without them. 



NEW JACKSON WONDER BUSH LIMA — A dwarf or bunch variety 

 growing from 18 to 30 inches high, immensely productive and 

 very early. Pods broad and flat, containing from tLree to four 

 beautiful variegated flat beans, similar in shape to the well- 

 known Lima, and in the dry state as shell beans can be used the 

 same as the Lima, but when the pods are young they make ex- 

 cellent snap beans. It is not waxy, hence cooks easily and quickly, 

 in fact fills all the requirements for a good garden variety as 

 well as a field sort. Pt. 15c, pt. 25c, qt. 40c. 



HENDERSON'S BUSH LIMA— Popular variety, valuable on account 

 of its extreme earliness and wonderful productiveness, contin- 

 uing to grow and set pods until stopped by frost. Vines are 

 without runners, leaves small, bright green and Lima like ; flow- 

 ers small, yellowish white, borne in clusters and often above 

 the foliage. Pods short, flat, and contain from three to flve 

 beans, which are of delicious quality. Any one who has tried 

 this variety will plant it again. }4 Pt- 15c, pt. 25c, qt. 40o. 



BURPEE'S BUSH LIMA — Burpee's Bush Lima comes absolutely 

 pure from seed. The bushes grow 18 to 20 inches high, of stout 

 growth and always erect, yet bi-anching so vigorously that each 

 plant develops into a magnificent circular busli. From two to 



three feet in diameter. The leaves are of very large size and 

 great substance. The bush character is thoroughly established, 

 not one plant in a thousand shows any disposition to run. The 

 thickness of the main stalk and branches of the plant, as also 

 the unusual size, healthy green color, and thick, leathei-y sub- 

 stance of the leaves indicate the strong constitution of this 

 variety. Immense yielder, each bush bearing from 100 to 20ii 

 handsome lai-ge pods, well filled with very large beans, which 

 are identical in size and luscious flavor to the well-known large 

 pole Lima. pt. 15c, pt. 23c, qt. 40c.

MERITORIOUS DWARF WAX BEANS. 



KEENEY'S RUSTLESS GOLDEN WAX— This new bean combines hardiness 

 and productiveness with fine quality. Is a vigoi-ous bush variety with 

 entire freedom fi'om rust. It puts forth short tendrils on which pods are 

 formed in addition to those near the central stalk. The pods, although 

 flat when vouns, are meatv and well filled, of fine quality, stringless and 

 of a rich vellow color. If 'the pods are picked as fast as developed, the 

 plant will furnish a bountiful supply. H pt. 12c, pt. 22c, qt. 40c. 



NEW REFUGEE WAX — Among green beans the Refugee type has always 

 been most valuable. This wax variety has all the peculiar characteristics 

 of the old Refusree, such as small, dense foliage, great productiveness, 

 roundness of pod and handsome appearance. It will readily be seen that 

 the advantages gained in producing a wax foi-m of this must be great. It
