Unrivalled Wax 



Dwarf Wax 



(Continued) 



The Earliest Wax Podded Variety Grown . Creamy Yellow Wax 

 Pods Without Rust. Symmetrical Shape. Attractive Color 



56. This is a comparatively new variety, but has come very 

 rapidly into general favor. It is in our opinion a decided 

 acquisition. 



The plant is strong, dwarf, not too strongly branching, with 

 large, almost smooth, lustrous green leaves. It bears an enor- 

 mous crop of pods of a most beautiful semi-transparent pale 

 yellow color. This color is maintained clear to the tips without 

 any suggestion of green. The pods are about six inches long 

 and almost straight, but with the valuable characteristic of 

 curving slightly at the ends toward maturity, thus avoiding 

 contact with the ground, and preventing liability to rust and 

 rot, also preserving intact the natural beauty of the pod. 



It is above all else the earliest Wax Bean within our knowl- 

 edge. We have found it two days earlier than any other in our 

 trials, which alone renders it extremely valuable. The color 

 develops very early in the growth of the pods, which remain 

 tender for a long period. The flavor is excellent, and both plant 

 • and pod are singularly free from rust and blight. (See engrav- 

 ing.) Priee, 15c pkt., 45c. pt., 85c. qt., $3.00 for half peck. 



Henderson's Super-Strain 



Improved Golden Wax 



Tender, Tasty, Meaty Pods, When Picked Young 



47. Among the Yellow Wax-Podded or "Butter" Beans, the 

 Golden Wax has long been in popular favor, but this Improved 

 variety by far surpasses the old favorite in several desirable 

 points. The plants are of vigorous, bushy growth, not sus- 

 ceptible to rust, moderately early, and very prolific. The pods 

 are exceedingly handsome, long, thick, fleshy, tender and brittle, 

 without string or coarse fibre at all stag'es until maturity, while 

 the color is of a rich golden-yellow. Although not the earliest 

 Dwarf Wax Bean, its reliability in producing a heavy crop, 

 whether planted in spring, summer or early fall, renders it 

 highly valuable for both homeland market planting.
