LANDRETHS’ EXTRA EARLY STRINGLESS 
RED VALENTINE—54 Days 
This is an “old bean in a new pod,” as the Extra 
Early Red Valentine was catalogued by the 
Landreths first in 1832. After most diligent work 
for ten years in our trial grounds, we have produced a 
bean the same color, not so curved, the same size, 
in all respects as the old Extra Early Red Valentine, 
except it is stringless and will fill a long felt want, 
as the Extra Early Red Valentine is one of the best 
known beans cultivated in the United States and 
considered by many growers to be of superior 
flavor to any other bean in the market. It is pro¬ 
ductive, round podded, curved, stringless, free from 
fibers, and of excellent quality. Our new stringless 
variety is much superior for the home garden or 
shipping purposes, especially for the Southern 
States where the old Extra Early Red Valentine has 
been the most popular bean. We expect our new 
strain to take the place of the old stringy type. 
It is in every way equal to the old type Red Valen¬ 
tine and better because it is stringless. We de¬ 
veloped this and are the first seedsmen to sell a 
Stringless Red Valentine. 
Red Valentine Extra Early—54 Days 
Color of seed, red mottled. Foliage, resembling 
Black Valentine, of a yellowish green. Height of 
vine, 14 to 15 inches. Pods, inches long, almost 
round, curved, cylindrical with a crease in back, 
light green, semi-transparent, and stringy, aver¬ 
aging 5 or 6 beans in a pod. One of the old standbys 
of good flavor, still very popular for family and 
market gardeners. Although stringy it is tender, 
fleshy, of good quality and appearance, a long keeper. 
Refugee Stringless (Roger’s)—74 Days
