Burpee’s Bush Lima 
Kentucky Wonder 
yellow-podded sort is even more prolific 
than its green-podded namesake, we give 
it a high recommendation indeed. It com¬ 
mences to bear when scarcely higher than 
the average bush variety and keeps on pro¬ 
ducing until killed by frost. The pods are 
long and thick and fleshy; meaty, entirely 
stringless, and when cooked, of a delicious, 
rich, buttery flavor. 
KENTUCKY WONDER OR OLD HOME¬ 
STEAD —Green podded, early and produc¬ 
tive. Pods grow in large clusters and are 
very rich and tender, almost round, and 
sometimes nine and ten inches long. Ex¬ 
cellent for snap beans. 
LAZY WIFE —This variety has become 
immensely popular in all sections of the 
country. It is the best green podded pole 
bean. 
HORTICULTURAL OR SPECKLED 
CRANBERRY —Short, broad green pods, 
which become streaked with red when 
nearly ripe. As a shell bean, either green 
or dry, it cannot be surpassed in quality. 
The beans are large and easily shelled.
