Chinese Giant Pepper 



The Finest, Largest 

 and Handsomest Mild Sort 



Chinese Giant is certainly a wonder. 

 The plants are of strong, stocky growth, 

 of bushy, erect habit, growing 18 inches 

 to 2 feet in height, with abundant foliage. 

 The compact plants are very prolific, set- 

 ting 8 to 4 extra large fruits at the base 

 quite early in the season, which ripen 

 while a second crop is setting on the 

 branches. The fruit is quite square in 

 appearance, while the flesh is thick and 

 very mild, being entirely free from any 

 fiery flavor. Without exception Chinese 

 Giant is pronounced the finest and largest 

 pepper ever grown. The seed crop of this 

 grand large pepper was very short this 

 year. Can offer in packets only. 



Packet, 15 cents; 2 packets, 25 cents.
