PERFECTION OR PIMIENTO The Sweetest Pepper Ever Grown. 



Absolutely Without Pungency Perfection Pimiento Pepper is the 

 sweetest of sweet peppers; there being not a trace of pungency perceptible 

 to the taste. The peppers are of a size very suitable for stuffing purposes 

 and are delicious when prepared for the table in that way. 



It is so smooth that it is quite easy to get the skins off by boiling a few 

 minutes ; or the skins can be pared off with a knife. 



The plants are very productive and the peppers, which, when ripe, are 

 a beautiful scarlet in color, hold more edible meat than any other sweet 

 variety. Perfection' or Pimiento is much sought after for pickles, cutting 

 up in salads, and for flavoring. (See engraving.) 



Price, oz. 45c, Vlb. $1.25, lb. $4.00. 



RUBY KING Ruby King is one of 

 the most popular large-fruited sweet 

 peppers grown. It is held in high 

 estimation by the market gardeners 

 and is equally valuable for the home 

 gardeners. The plants, which are 

 vigorous, grow to a height of about 

 two feet, and are clothed with rich, 

 dark green foliage. 



The fruits average about five inches 

 long by three inches in diameter and 

 are usually three lobed. The color is a 

 pleasing deep green, which turns to 

 a glowing ruby red when ripe and the 

 plant is a prolific bearer presenting a 

 most attractive appearance when 

 showing its fruit in various stages of 

 development. 



The flesh is exceedingly thick, 

 sweet and mild making it a desirable 

 and favorite sort for slicing, salads, 

 stuffing, etc. (See engraving.) 



Price, oz. 45c, ] 4 lb. $1.25, lb. $4.00.
