GOURDS—Ornamental 
A tribe of climbers, with curiously shaped fruit 
in various colors. Being of rapid growth, they are 
fine to cover old fences, trellises, stumps, etc. 
Do not plant the seed till the danger of frost is 
over, and select rich mellow ground. Tender 
annual climbers, 10 to 20 feet. Fine mixed. 
Pkt., 5c; oz., 15c. 
• GREEN SNAKE GOURD 
A most interesting novelty of recent introduc¬ 
tion. Young fruits of this gourd grow to an 
astounding length of over 10 ft. when the vines 
are twined to a lofty trellis and the fruits left 
hanging naturally. 
When the fruits are disturbed by something 
during growing period, they start to wind form¬ 
ing various fantastic forms resembling green 
snakes. Fruits are edible if cooked in early 
stage of growth and the fibre can be used as 
Dish Cloth when fully ripe. 
The seed of this new gourd is very high priced 
and we can only offer it in small packages of 
8 seeds for 5c, or a larger package containing 20 
seeds for 10c.
