HENDERSON'S IMPROVED 



Black Wax Bush Bean 



An Extra Early Cylinder-Podded Variety. 



This is a highly improved stock of the popula 

 Black Wax. The plants are of robust though com 

 pact bushy habit, with ample foliage, which com 

 pletely shelters the pods from the effects of the sun 

 so that they are always of a uniform, waxy, yellow 

 color. The pods are of good size, quite round 

 slightly curved, very solid, meaty and free from 

 string; of excellent, tender quality. It is very 

 prolific and one of the earliest wax-podded dwarf 

 beans grown. It has a special value as a market 

 variety, in the fact that it " stands up " admirably 

 and may always be relied on to present a good ap- 

 pearance in the crate. (See cut.) Price, 25c. qt., 

 $1.50 pk., $5.50 bush. 



WARDWELL'S 



Kidney Wax Bean. 



One of the best large-podded wax beans. Very 

 robust and hardy, producing a heavy crop of showy, 

 large, long, flat wax pods, not liable to rust or 

 blister. (See cut.) 



Price, 25c. qt., $1.70 pk., $6.00 buch. 



"I am pleased to say thai I used your Wardwell's wax beans 

 this season and have the best crop of beans I have raised in 7 years.'

IMPROVED 



GOLDEN WAX BUSH BEAN. 



The Standard Flat, Wax-Podded Variety. 



The Golden Wax has long been in popular favor, but this im- 

 proved variety by far surpasses the old favorite in several desirable 

 points. The plants are of vigorous, bushy growth, not susceptible 

 to rust, moderately early and very prolific. The pods are ex- 

 ceedingly handsome, large, uniformly broad, thick, and almost all 

 solid flesh, of good quality, tender and brittle, absolutely without 

 string or coarse fibre at all stages until maturity, while the color 

 is of a rich goldqn-yellow. Although not the earliest dwarf wax 

 bean, its reliability in producing a heavy crop of large handsome 

 pods, whether sown in spring, summer or early fall, renders it highly 

 valuable for market planting. Price, 25c. qt, $1.60 pk., $5.75 bush. 



HENDERSON'S 



MARKET WAX BUSH BEAN. 



A MAMMOTH FLAT WAX-PODDED SORT. 



This grand acquisition we think will entirely displace other flat- 

 podded wax beans. The plants are unusually robust, with lux- 

 uriant, healthy foliage, resisting disease and unfavorable weather 

 and, whether sown early, midseason or late, invariably produces in 

 greatest abundance large and handsome, waxy, golden-yellow pods. 

 They are of immense size, nearly six inches in length, and of great 

 breadth, entirely free from green tips. The quality, unlike some 

 varieties of similar type, is fully equal to that of the smaller podded 

 dwarf wax beans, and the pods, though flat, are thick, meaty, very 

 tender, entirely stringless even when approaching maturity, and of 

 mild, fine flavor. It is very early for so large a sort, rendering it of 

 especial value as a market bean. This new bean is not only de- 

 sirable as an edible wax-podded snap bean, but is also valuable as a 

 shell bean. Price, 25c. qt., $1.50 pk., $5.50 bush. 



DAVIS' KIDNEY WAX BEAN. 



One of the very best varieties for the Market Gardener. Pods 

 are 6 inches long, flat, generally straight, very attractive in color and 

 holds up in shipping better than anv other variety. Price, 25c. 

 qt., $1.70 pk., $6.00 bush.
