BLISS'S EVER-BEARING PEA. 



The want of a reliable first-class pea for 

 Summer and Autumn use lias long and se- 

 riously been felt by everyone. With this 

 new and remarkable variety I am confident 

 I place before the public a pea which, when 

 sufficiently known, will everywhere be re- 

 cognized as the main dependence for a Sum- 

 mer and Autumn crop. Season late, to 

 very late. Height of vines 18 inches to 2 feet. 

 Its habit of growth is of a peculiar branch- 

 ing character, forming as many as ten stalks 

 from a single root stalk. One "hundred pods 

 have been counted on a single vine. After 

 repeated pickings of quantities of full-sized 

 pods, the vines continue to be covered with 

 blossoms and buds developing to maturity 

 in turn, and making it practically as per- 

 petual a bearer as can be found in the pea 

 tribe. On account of its branching habit, 

 half a pint of seed of the Ever-Bearing 

 Pea will plant as much ground as a quart of 

 most other kinds. Pkt.,"l5cts.. pint, 35 cts.; 

 quart, 6-5 cts.

BLISS'S

 rectly from the roots, forming 

 a veritable bush. Plant half

 roundish and well-filled, con- 

 taining 6 to 8 large wrinkled

PRIDE OF THE MARKET. 



The following is an extract from The Gardener's 

 Magazine: "They require no sticks, and are quite 

 unequaled in productiveness. They have a robust 

 free-branching habit. 18 to 20 inches high, and are 

 immensely productive. They are, indeed, such 

 heavv croppers that I know of no peas from which 

 so large a bulk of produce can be obtained from a 

 given space; indeed no such varieties exist. The 

 pods are so large in size and handsome in appear- 

 ance that they take high rank for exhibition pur- 

 poses, and the peas, when on the table, are of so 

 splendid a quality that it would be difficult to 

 overpraise them. '" Pkt., 15c.; pint, 40c.; quart, 75c.
