FOBDHOOE BUSH LIMA. — An improved dwarf Lima of the 

 Kumerle type. The plant is vigorous and erect growing, bearing 

 well above the ground. The pods are produced in large clusters, 

 each containing three to five large beans of exceptionally fine quality. 

 Much more productive than Kumerle and matures earliei. We con- 

 sider this a decided acquisitj >a to the dwarf Lima, possibly the best 

 of the class. Ft., 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



BURPEE'S IMPROVED BUSH LIMA. — Will outyield Burpee's 

 Bush Lima by fully one-third. This greater yield is due to the in- 

 creased size of both pod and beans. The dried beans are very hand- 

 some, and generally show a greenish-white coloring, while dried 

 beans of the Burpee Bush Lima, like those of the Large Pole Lima, 

 are pure white. Pint, 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



BURPEE'S BUSH LIMA. — Bushes grow 18 to 20 inches high, stout 

 growth and always erect, yet branching so vigorously that each plant 

 develops into a magnificent circular bush 2 to 3 feet in diameter; 

 an immense yielder, each bush bearing 50 to 200 handsome, large 

 pods, well filled. Pint, 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



KUMERLE, or DREER'S BUSH LIMA Dwarf variety of Dreer's 



Improved Lima, which has been fixed in its character of a bush bean; 

 very prolific, single plants often producing 150 to 200 pods. Equal 

 in quality and tenderness to Dreer's Pole Lima. 



Pint, 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



DREER'S WONDER BUSH LIMA Very desirable on account of 



earliness, productiveness; of strong, upright growth, and are com- 

 pletely covered with large pods, many of which contain four beans, 

 which are fully as large as the Pole Limas. The beans are flat in 

 shape and of excellent quality. 



Pint, 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



HENDERSON BUSH LIMA These are very valuable, because 



they do not need poles, and. being so dwarf, can be planted close 

 together. They are very early and prolific, continuing to bear until 

 frost. Pint, 35c. Quart, 60c. Peck, $4.00. Bushel, $16.00. 



POLE 

 LIMAS 



Set the poles 3 

 to 4 feet apart and 

 plant 6 to 8 beans, 

 ■with the eyes 

 downward, around 

 each pole, thinning 

 to 4 healthy plants 

 when they are up. 

 They require the 

 same soil and 

 treatment as the 

 dwarf varieties.
