BEANS-Pole Lima 



£ •! if Introduced by us 1895. Practical value has been the ob- 



iPln^rT S ject aimed at in the development of this grand variety.

continues so from the very first to the last of the season, so that although 

 the pods rarely contain more than four beans the total yield is enormous. 

 The green shelled beans are of immense size and ai'e tender and succu- 

 lent. They shrink in drying to about the size of the Large White Lima. 

 In earliness, ease of shelling, size, beauty and quality of the green beans, 

 this varietv is far in advance of all other sorts. It is recognized as the 

 best of all the Limas for either the garden or market. Pkt. 10c; Pt. 35c;

Vines very vig- 

 orous and pro- 

 ductive. Pods 

 r^ I I • of the largest 



Garden Lima j-i„f;'ed 



five immense white beans of the finest quality. On account 

 of its large pods it is a favorite with market gardeners. It 

 will come into bearing sooner and will make larger pods if not 

 more than two vines are left to grow on a pole. Pkt. 10c;

LARGE WHITE LIMA This bean is too late for the 

 extreme north and is being supplanted by Seibert's 

 Early Lima, because the latter is earlier. Vine tall 

 growing, vigorous, but slender; leaves medium, sized, 

 smooth, light green; pods borne 

 in clusters, long, broad, very 



V thin, dark green; seed large, 

 ovoid, flat, greenish- white.

Early Golden 

 Cluster Wax 

 Bean. 



Kin^ of the 



Challenger Lima 



The vines of this splendid sort 

 are very stout, vigorous and pro- 

 ductive. The pods are much Seibert's Early Lima 

 thicker than those of the other Bean. 

 Li mas and contain from four to 

 five beans which are large, thick, 

 white and of the best quality. 

 It is early and continues to pro- ' 

 duce large clusters of pods until 



cut off by frost. One of the most popular varieties with the 

 New York market gardeners. This is similar to, but a decided 

 improvement on what is known as Dreer's Improved Lima.
