HENDERSON'S SUPERIOR SEEDS FOR MARKET GARDENERS. 



HENDERSON'S 



FIKST OF ALL PEA. 



Its first important feature is its extreme earliness, ensuring to the 

 trucker the advantage of marketing his produce so much earlier than 

 those who do not grow it. It is also exceedingly productive. The 

 vines are vigorous and dwarf, about 2\ feet in height. Another im- 

 portant feature: the entire crop can be gathered at one picking, and 

 every trucker will realize at once the economy in labor in growing such 

 a pea. Moreover, the stock which we are sending out to-day is superior, 

 constant selection has enabled us to eliminate every undesirable 

 feature, such as small double pods, irregularity in height, and weak 

 spindling habit, which form so large a part of the crop of many so- 

 called First Earlies. (See cut.) Price, 30c. qt., $2.00 pk., $7.50 bush. 



The Ameer 



or "Mammoth 

 = Pea.= 



Alaska" 



This new variety — often called the " Mammoth Alaska " is rapidly 

 growing in favor among Market Gardeners being planted on an ex- 

 tensive scale on many of the largest truck farms. It resembles Alaska, 

 the vine being more vigorous, a little taller or about 3 feet in height and 

 the pods and peas are fully one third larger. It is a heavy producer 

 of handsome dark green pods containing from 5 to 7 large blue-green 

 round peas of excellent quality. The crop ripens uniformly about 

 three days later than Alaska. Price, 35c. qt., $2.60 pk., $9.00 bush. 



ALASKA PEA. 



One of the earliest blue Peas. The dark green color of the pods makes 

 it extremely desirable, as it can be carried long distances without losing 

 color, which quality combined with its earliness and uniformity of 

 ripening, makes it a most desirable Pea for the southern market 

 gardeners. Height, 2 ft. 25c. qt., $1.75 peck, $6.50 bush.

 they seemed bunched together. The

 stuffing for " mangoes." When ripe 

 the surface is of a brilliant, glossy 

 scarlet. {See cut.) Price,
