VEGETABLE SEED SPECIALTIES 



HENDERSON'S DWARF EARLY PEA, 



Melting Makkow 



This is one of the best of the recent English introductions. Our 

 stock has tjeen thoroughly acclimatized and perfectly selected, and 

 is therefore admirably fitted to resist the trying conditions of the 

 American summer. 



Henderson's Melting Marrow Pea is early, following immediately 

 after the extra early sorts, thus rilling in the gap between these and 

 the midsummer varieties, though by successive sowings Melting 

 Marrow Peas may be long enjoyed. 



The plants are of robust, half-dwarf habit, growing about 15 

 inches high, with sturdy branching stalks that are practically self- 

 supporting, so that trellis or brush is not essential, tin >ugh low 1 >rush 

 or crossed sticks, if convenient, will not be misapplied. The mas- 

 sive pods are produced in prodigal abundance from ground to 

 summit, and are packed with from six to eight immense wrinkled 

 Marrow Peas of a rich green color, which hue is maintained when 

 cooked, thus appearing especially attractive when served, while 

 the delicious quality and superb rich flavor is unequalled by any 

 Pea of American origin. (See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 40c. 

 qt., $2.75 pk., $10.00bush. 



" Your new dwarf pea. Melting Marrow, is certainly the finest pea in existence. 

 I do not believe there is another pea that can compare with it for ear! 

 flavor. I made the first planting on May 16th, and on June 89th (just 45 days), I 

 picked the first mess, and they were the sweetest, tendcres! and most delicious peas 

 that we ever tasted. They are all and more than vou claim for them." 



LLOYD H. 5.4 ADS, Tolona. III. 



"I am pleased to tell you that Melting Marrow proved the best dwarf pea I have 

 ever grown, and I have tried a great many during my gardening experience of 69 

 The flavor was good and the yield enormous."

JUNO PEA 



Juno Pea we esteem highly. It is a main-crop variety, of 

 vigorous constitution, which shows itself in the strong, 

 handsome, branching plant. It is 2 feet in height, requiring 

 little or no brushing. It produces an abundance of the 

 finest peas possible, the vines being actually laden with pods. 

 These are dark green, stout and heavy, containing from 7 

 to 9 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 merit of preserving their tenderness 

 and superb flavor long after they .are young, and also retain 

 their attractive dark green color when served at table. (See 

 cut. ) Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $2.75 pk., $10.00 bush. 



" Your Juno Peas were grand. Our Burkland Doctor says he never ate 

 such delicious peas in all his life." 



MRS. A. E. DUDLEY, Buckland, Mass. 



Henderson's HEROINE PEA 



Heroine is a medium early, green wrinkled Pea, combin- 

 ing quantity and quality in a degree surpassed by no other 

 variety. It grows uniformly about 2^2 feet high, and is 

 literally covered with its long, heavy, pointed pods. The 

 quality of this pea is simply perfection — that rich, buttery, 

 marrow-like flavor for which the peas grown in the gardens 

 of Old England are celebrated. Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 

 40c. qt., $2.75 pk., $10.00 bush. 



Beans, Peas and Corn we do not deliver free, but will do so if 5c. per pt. or 1 Oc. per qt. is added to the prices
