Burpee’s Tomatoes —Continued 
iii4 True Giant Ponderosa O 
(L) The Tomatoes grow to extremely large size and are full 
of luscious juicy flesh. The seed cavities are unusually 
small, which accounts for the solid meat. It is not unusual 
for the Tomatoes to weigh 24 ozs. and more, though the 
average runs around 9 ozs. They are deep, somewhat 
flattened, and have a most agreeable mild flavor. People 
who do not care for the acid flavor of the deep red 
Tomatoes will find in Ponderosa a very palatable and 
tasty fruit of a delightful mild flavor and a good deep 
pink color. Pkt. 15^; */ 2 oz. 40^; oz. <35^; 4 ozs. $1.95;

1095 Burpee’s Dwarf Giant © 
(L) This is the finest and best of all dwarf Tomatoes, 
producing fruits which will weigh 10 to 20 ozs. each. 
They are smooth, somewhat flattened, and have a rich 
purple-crimson skin. Burpee’s Dwarf Giant is the most 
meaty of all Tomatoes, with flesh free from any hard fiber 
or core. The meat is fine grained, juicy, and solid enough 
to stand shipping well. It has a most delicious and rich 
taste. The seed cavities are extremely small and it is, 
therefore, a shy seeder. Highly valued by home gardeners 
and market growers who wish to grow a variety which can 
be planted closely. Pkt. 150; Vi oz. 350; oz.600; 4 ozs.$1.80;
