Henderson's HEROINE PEA 



VERY PROLIFIC. PEAS LAKGE, OFTEN 10. SOMETIMES 



12 TO APOD FAIRLY MELTING IN 



YOUR MOUTH FROM SWEETNESS 



HEROINE is a medium early, green wrinkled Pea, 

 combining quantity and quality in a degree sur- 

 passed by no other variety. It grows uniformly 

 about 23^2 feet high, and is literally covered with its long, 

 heavy, pointed pods. In the cut we show the size and 

 form of the Peas, which come 8 to 10 in a pod. The quality 

 of this Pea is simply perfection — that rich, buttery, mar- 

 row-like flavor for which the Peas grown in the gardens 

 of Old England are celebrated. {See cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 

 25c. pt., 40c. qt., $1.50 for four qts., $2.75 pk. 



" This is the first year I have grown your Heroine Pea and I think 

 it is a wonder. Miss Rich asked me io sejid them some nice peas for 

 some special occasion. 1 sent the Heroine, and I was sent for to give 

 them the naine of the peas — they were so relished. They do well as a 

 second crop and are long-bearing." HENRY KEN WARD, 



Stamford, Conn. 



JUNO PEA 



A DWARF MAIN CROP WRINKLED MARROW PEA 

 ENORMOUSLY PROLIFIC SUPERB FLAVOR 



JUNO Pea we esteem highly. It is a main-crop va- 

 riety, of vigorous constitution, which shows itself 

 in the strong, handsome, branching plant. It is 

 2 feet in height, requiring little or no brushing, and pro- 

 duces 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 hnest 

 quality, which so thoroughly fill the pod as to make it 

 almost cylindrical in shape. The Peas possess the 

 admirable merit of preserving their tenderness and 

 superb flavor long after they are young, and also re- 

 tain their attractive dark green color when served. 

 Price, 10c. pkt., 25c. pt., 45c. qt., $1.60 for four qts., 

 $3.00 pk. 



"Your Juno Peas deserve all of the praise you give them and more. 

 The sturdy vines are loaded with well-filled pods so well protected from 

 the sun by luxuriant dark green foliage — that the peas keep in fresh con- 

 dition for the table for a long time even when other peas have dried up 

 from the heat. Their season of bearing is long and their flavor deli- 

 cious." Mrs. R. H. EMERSON, 322 W. Main St., Jackson. Mich.

 GIANT PEPPER 



THE mammoth fruits of this va- 

 riety average 12 to 15 inches 

 in circumference, and, notwith- 

 standing the immense sizeof the fruits, 

 it is very early and prolific ; the 

 stocky, well-branched plants, about 

 2 feet high, carry so many Peppers 

 that in places they seem bunched 

 together. The flesh is thick, tender, 

 mild, sweet and unexcelled when 

 sliced as salad, or for stuffing for 

 "Mangoes." When ripe the surface 

 is of a brilliant glossj' scarlet. (See 

 cut.) Price, 10c. pkt., 50c. oz., $1.50

" Your Chinese Giant is the best pepper I 

 ever grew."
