Heroine Pea 



Heavy Cropper. Large Curved Pods. Delicious Marrow Flavor 



When in England, one is struck with the particularly rich 

 flavor of the Peas grown there. In that temperate climate they 

 acquire a flavor rarely attained under our less favorable condi- 

 tions. 



But "Heroine" is so constituted that it flourishes in our 

 hot summers and retains its native flavor, so that with this 

 variety one may rival the British product. "We can give it 

 no stronger recommendation. 



It is 2^2 feet high and bears an abundant crop of large, 

 well-filled pods at the height of the season. (Sec engrav- 

 ing.) Price, 15c. pkt., 45c. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 for 4 qts., 

 $5.50 peck. 



"This is the first year I have grown your Heroine Pea and 1 think it 

 is a wonder Miss Rich asked me to send them some nice peas for some 

 special occasion, 1 sent the Heroine, and I was sent for to give them the 

 name of the Peas — they were so relished. They do well as a second 

 crop and are long-bear inc."

Improved Stratagem Pea 



A Lar£?e-Podded Semi-Dwarf Variety 

 TJhe Improved Stratagem Pea is a mid-season variety and 

 has been developed from a well known English Pea, upon 

 which it is a great improvement. It comes true to form and 

 is one of the best large-podded peas in cultivation. The 

 vines, which grow usually to a height of 2 to 2}^ feet, branch 

 out into two stems at the surface of the soil, both branches 

 being of equal vigor. These bear a great quantity of im- 

 mense pods measuring nearly 5, 1 £ inches in length, and closely 

 filled with from eight to ten large wrinkled peas of rich flavor. 

 It is a favorite variety for private use. (Sec engraving.) 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 35c. pt, 60c. qt.', $2.30 for 4 qts., $4.50 peck, f 



Nott's Excelsior Pea EailY 'i!^rq^ 



A distinctly American production of remarkably vigorous constitution, 

 enormously productive, and generally excellent. The pods are of good size, 

 produced liberally, and are extremely well filled with excellent Peas of per- 

 fect quality. The plant is among the smallest, very rarely exceeding 15 

 inches in height, and is easily grown. It still is, and long will be, extremely 

 popular. Many people who have only small gardens use this sort exclusive- 

 ly, making repeated sowings for successive crops. (See engraving.) Price, 

 15c. pkt., 4Sc. pt., 80c. qt., $3.00 for 4 qts., $5.50 peck 



"/ want to tell you that your Nott's Excelsior Peas are very wonderful. 'They taste 

 sweeter and richer than any 1 have ever eaten before, and they are very productive."
