American Wonder 
DWARF GRAY SUGAR 
ALASKA—A variety of remarkable earliness and hardiness. It is 
a good yielder and produces pods of good size and dark, round mooth 
peas of splendid flavor, green in color, pods are well filled ; height one 
foot; the color of the dried pea is green; it ripens very evenly, so 
that one picking will nearly clean off the crop. 
AMERICAN WONDER—This pea is a hybrid of fixed habit, be¬ 
tween the Champion of England and the Little Gem ; it possesses the 
merits of both, with some additional claims to notice. The vine grows 
12 to 15 inches high, and is very prolific in pods of striking form 
and size, in maturity it is among the first earliest, ripening in about 
fifty days from germination. It is among the first early of the green 
wrinkled sorts. Its habit is so dwarf that it can lie very successfully 
grown under glass. 
NOTT’S EXCELSIOR—Robust and vigorous in growth, inclined to 
throw laterals from the base of the stock, producing in profusion 
long, handsome pods closely packed with large peas of fine flavor. An 
improvement of American Wonder, being more vigorous and prolific 
with larger pods, more peas than either the Wonder or Premium Gem. 
A decided acquisition and sure to be very popular when generally 
known ; height, 12 inches.

dwarf, green wrinkled variety ; very popular and more prolific than 
the Little Gem. 16 to 18 inches high, requires no support, pods !1 
inches. 
GRADUS—The most attractive novelty of recent years ; large, hand¬ 
some pods resembling Telephone in size and shape, well filled with 
large peas, ripening with the earli¬ 
est ; is certain to be eagerly sought. 
Ripening very quickly, the pods 
must be picked as soon as fit for 
the table. Halbit vigorous, very 
quick to germinate and push to 
maturity; foilage large, pale green 
in color; pods long, straight, slight¬ 
ly rounded at point. Seed large,
