Henderson's NEW EAKLY GIANT 



BUSH LIMA BEAN. 



This newest and best Bush Lima represents the highest achievement in bean breeding. 

 We — the pioneer introducers of the Bush Lima — have since been constantly improving them 

 and we are now enabled to offer our patrons, in Henderson's Early Giant, a Bush Lima that 

 has attained the acme of perfection, surpassing any other strain or type on the market. The 

 plants, of true bush form, 1^2 feet in height, are of healthy, sturdy, upright growth — requiring 

 neither poles nor stakes — and bear, from July until frost, almost unbelievable quantities of 5 to 

 6 inch pods, each containing usually four large, thick beans averaging as large as those of the large 

 pole Limas, and whether used green or cured they are of superb quality — tender, rich and but- 

 tery, the true Lima flavor. In the green state their tender freshness is maintained beyond the 

 ordinary, accounted for by the pods being unusually fleshy and thick and the foliage luxuriant 

 and sheltering. Other merits of this phenomenal Bush Lima are earliness, abundance and 

 continuity of yield. First pickings fit for the table may be taken in the latitude of New York 

 in July, and from that time until killed by frost a continuous supply of this most luscious of 

 beans mav be gathered. (See cut.) Price, per packet, 15c, 2 packets for 25c, 35c. pint., 



60c qt., $4.00 peck. 



A FEW OF MANY 

 REPORTS ABOUT 



Henderson's Early Giant Bush Lima 



ALL TELL THE 

 SAME STOKY. 



" Your Bush Lima Beans — Early Giant — were excellent, fully equal to Pole Limas, and so much earlier. 

 Two rows 30 feel long gave us all we could use from July until frost and we gathered liberally. They were so 

 delicious." Mrs. CHAS. MORTON, Chambersburg Pa. 



"I must say the Early Giant are the best bush limas I ever grew for size — bearing and flavor. The plants 

 hung full all summer and fall." G. L. JOHNSON, Springfield. Mass. 



"I think I have tried all Bush Limas thus far introduced and give the palm for 

 superiority to your Early Giant. It proved an early, prolific and continuous bearer 

 of the largest limas, fully equalling in size those of mv pole limas." 



JOHN L. PETERS, Topeka, Kansas. 



The Improved "HENDERSON" Bush Lima Bean. 



Bush Lima Beans are now considered a necessity in almost 

 every garden. This popularity is due to their dwarf, bushy growth, 

 requiring no poles or brush. There are several types of Bush Limas, 

 all of which have their particular merits, but all points considered, 

 the type we introduced — the "Henderson" Bush Lima — has stood 

 the test of time, and is now more largely grown than all others 

 <3 combined. All impartial critics admit that it excels in all 

 ^>^ 1 essential features. The only adverse criticism made on the 

 original variety was the small size of the individual 

 bean. In the Improved "Henderson, " this is entirely 

 overcome; the green bean measures about 1 inch 

 long, by % of an inch in breadth, and, further 

 they are plump, very tender, and of exqui- 

 sitely rich, true, buttery Lima flavor, 

 ^^^" whether used green or dried for winter. 



For earliness and continuous productive- 

 ness the Improved " Henderson " is a verit- 

 able " pick-and-come-again " Lima Bean 

 until killed by frost. They are at least 10 

 to 12 days earlier than other types of Bush 

 Limas, and 2 to 3 weeks earlier than Pole 

 Limas. [See cut.) Price 15c pkt., 25c pt., 

 40c qt., $2.50 pk., $9.00 bu. 



PEAS, BEANS and CORN we do NOT deliver free, but will do so if 5c. per pt. or 10c. per qt. is added to prices.
