No Poles, No Stakes. 



Enormous Pods and Beans; 



Equalling those of Pole Limas. 



Quality and Flavor; 



Tender, Rich and Buttery — 



The True Lima Taste. 



Prodigious Yielder ;

Delicious Green Limas 



From July Until Frost. 



This newest and best Bush Lima represents the highest achievement in bean breeding. 

 We — the pioneer introducers of the Bush Lima — have since been constantly improving them 

 and we are now enabled to offer our patrons, in Henderson's Early Giant, a Bush Lima that 

 has attained the acme of perfection, surpassing any other strain or type on the market. 

 The plants, of true bush form, 1^ feet in height, are of healthy, sturdy, upright growth — re- 

 quiring neither poles nor stakes — and bear, from July until frost, almost unbelievable quan- 

 tities of 5 to 6 inch pods, each containing usually four large, thick beans averaging as large 

 as those of the large pole Limas, and whether used green or cured they are of superb quality 

 — tender, rich and buttery, the true Lima flavor. In the green state their tender freshness 

 is maintained beyond the ordinary, accounted for by the pods being unusually fleshy and 

 thick and the foliage luxuriant and sheltering. Other merits of this phenomenal Bush Lima are 

 earliness, abundance and continuity of yield. First pickings fit for the table may be taken in 

 the latitude of New York in July, and from that time until killed by frost a continuous supply 

 of this most luscious of beans may be gathered. (See cut.) Price, 26c. pt., 46c. qt., $3 00 pk.

BUSH LIMA 



HENDERSON'S EAKLY LEVIATHAN 



POLE LIMA BEAN. 



ONE WEEK EARLIEK THAN ANY! 

 TWO WEEKS EARLIER THAN MOST! 



Of Superior Quality. Immense Size. Wonderfully Productive. 



Leviathan is one week earlier than any large Pole Lima yet 

 offered and two weeks earlier than most, consequently it will 

 prove a boon to thousands of growers. We cannot praise too 

 highly the splendid quality and enormous productiveness of this 

 peerless variety. The pods grow in large clusters — we have 

 frequently seen from 5 to 10 in a cluster — and they are always 

 well filled with the most delicious beans of beautiful green color. 

 Price, 30c. qt., $1.90 pk., $7.00 bush. 



"Your Leviathan Pole Lima Beans are par excellence in earliness, size, flavor 

 and productiveness far ahead of any Limas I have ever seen. Their qualities are 

 all good:' C, H. JONES, Galveston, Texas. 



HENDEKSON'S 



IDEAL Pole L ima Bean. 



THE BEST MAIN-CROP LIMA GROWN. 

 Enormously Prolific. Beans of Gigantic Size. Quality Superb. 



Henderson's Ideal Lima is not extra early, but it matures a 

 tremendous crop before frost in the vicinity of New York. 

 The merits of this variety are enormous size of pod and bean, 

 productiveness and quality. It produces the largest Limas we 

 we have ever seen; five to seven of these big, fat buttery beans 

 are borne in pods averaging two-thirds of a foot long; these pods 

 are produced in large clusters, those at the bottom of the plant 

 maturing early in the season, followed in succession by the upper 

 clusters, those at the top of the pole coming in before frost. 

 The plant is of rugged constitution, which carries it through wet 

 spells without injury. The superb quality, combined with 

 gigantic size of bean and productiveness, render Henderson's 

 IDEAL the peer of any Lima grown for use either green or cured. 

 Price, 36c. qt., $2.00 pk., $7.26 bush.
