CHINESE GIANT 
THE FINEST, LARGEST AND HAND¬ 
SOMEST PEPPER OF ALL I 
A magnificent variety, the largest and 
finest Pepper in cultivation. The plant is 
about two feet high, of strong, vigorous 
growth, stocky and erect in habit, very 
productive, and ripens its fruit earlier than 
the Ruby King. The fruit is well shown in 
our illustration, is quite square, averages 4 
inches in diameter, and is of a bright, glossy 
scarlet when ripe. The flesh is usually thick 
and very mild, having none of the pungency 
i of most of the older varieties. The immense 
size of the fruit and its brilliant color ren¬ 
der it very attractive and will cause it to 
sell readily in the market. Every private 
garden should have this sort. Matures in 
140 days.
