PEAS—Continued. 
Laxton Progress. The earliest, large-podded, dwarf, 
sweet Pea. Vine 16 inches high. Pods 4 inches 
long, broad, pointed, dark green in color. Excellent 
quality. 
Little Gem (Premium Gem). (Wrinkled). A dwarf 
variety that is enormously productive. The vine 
grows 18 inches high and the pods are borne on 
both sides of the plants. The Peas are of medium 
size and excellent quality. 
Nott’s Excelsior. (Wrinkled). One of the most pop¬ 
ular of the extra early varieties, especially with mar¬ 
ket gardeners. It is a close, compact grower, with 
3-inch pods tightly filled to the very end with large 
peas of exceptionally sweet flavor. 
Thomas Laxton. (Wrinkled). Four days later than 
Gradus and identical in growth, but the pods are a 
deeper, richer green and are square at the end. 
Thought by many to be even sweeter and finer in 
flavor than Gradus. Matures in 60 days. 
Late Peas 
Alderman. (Wrinkled). This variety must be supported 
by brush or trellises, as it reaches a height of 5 to 6 
feet. The plants bear a profusion of large pods 
which contain 7 good sized, elongated, dark green 
peas of excellent quality. Matures in 70 days. 
Bliss’ Everbearing. (Wrinkled). Yields an abundance 
of large pods filled with good sized peas. A fine 
variety. 
Dwarf Telephone (Carter’s Daisy). (Wrinkled). Re¬ 
sembles Telephone in everything but height, which 
is 18 inches. A very good sort. 
Potlatch. (Wrinkled). The best extremely late dwarf 
Pea on the market. The vines are very vigorous and 
healthy, bearing an abundance of deep green pods, 
sometimes in pairs, and often containing on an aver¬ 
age of seven fine large peas of exquisite flavor. In 
ordinary seasons it bears continuously from July 1 
to 1?. Matures in 70 days. 
Telephone. (Wrinkled). An extremely valuable va¬ 
riety because of its long bearing season. The vines 
are very vigorous in growth, reaching a height of 
3J/2 feet, and bearing an average of 18 to 20 pods 
to a stalk. The pods are of large size and contain 
6 or 7 peas closely packed, of pale green color and 
delicious flavor. Matures in 70 days. 
Champion of England. (Wrinkled). This popular old 
variety is still largely planted because of its rich flavor. 
It reaches a height of 4 to 5 feet. The pods are well 
filled and are borne in profusion. 
Improved Stratagem. A splendid late Pea. Foliage and 
pods dark green. Pods about 4 inches in length, well 
filled with large peas of best quality. Height 2 feet. 
Marrowfat, White. A white-seeded variety of the fa¬ 
mous old Marrowfat which almost everybody knows. 
A strong grower and yields heavily. 
Sugar Peas 
This class of Peas is cooked without removing the 
pods and makes a most delicious vegetable dish. The 
pods are very tender and exceedingly sweet when 
young. 
Dwarf White. Very similar in habit to the American 
Wonder, being unusually dwarf. Despite its small 
size it bears good sized pods which are beautifully 
crimpled and of exquisite melting flavor. One of the 
best sorts and a variety that has been largely planted. 
Smooth white seed. 
Mammoth Luscious. The largest, sweetest, and most 
desirable of the Sugar Peas. They reach a height of 
5 feet and are literally covered with large, broad pods 
which are so brittle that they snap without any string. 
When cooked the pods are very sweet and tender. 
Large, wrinkled brown seed. 
Dwarf Gray Sugar. A gray-seeded variety. The vines 
grow about 15 inches high, producing a heavy crop 
of small, flat pods about 3 inches in length. Just 
the variety to plant where a dwarf sort is desired. 
Grayish brown seed, smaller than Mammoth Lus¬ 
cious. 
Mammoth Melting Sugar. The pods of this variety are 
so brittle that they snap without any string. The 
plants grow to a height of 5 feet and bear a profusion 
of large, broad, delicious pods. One of the best Sugar 
Peas, and should have a place in every garden, how¬ 
ever small. Smooth white seed, resembling Marrow¬ 
fat, but larger.
