Everbearing 
Blue Bantam Telephone 
M. M. Sugar 
EVERBEARING. A variety mat¬ 
uring soon after the Gems, and continuing 
a long time in bearing. Vine stout, about 
18 inches high, bearing at the top six to 
ten broad pods. If these are removed as 
they mature; and the season and soil are 
favorable, the plant will throw out from 
the axis of each leaf branches bearing pods 
which will mature in succession, thus pro¬ 
longing the season. Peas wrinkled, large, 
cooking quickly, very tender and of super¬ 
ior flavor; plant thin in rows. 
Dwarf Gray Sugar. Large edible- 
podded sort. Grows 2 to 3 ft. high, 
purple blossom; pods are broad flat 
and contain 5 to 6 peas. seed is 
brown and wrinkled when ripe. 
TELEPHONE. One of the finest, tall 
wrinkled marrows yet introduced. It is 
immensely productive; of the best quality, 
and excellent sugary flavor; vines very st¬ 
rong, averaging 18 to 20 pods to the stalk. 
The pods are of large size and closely pack¬ 
ed with large delicious peas. Height 
4 feet. 
Mammoth Melting Sugar 
This is a class of peas little known in this 
country, but much used abroad, in which 
the large, sweet; brittle and succulent pods 
have none of the tough inner lining found 
in the ordinary varieties of garden peas; 
they are used in the same way as snap or 
string beans. The best of these edible sorts 
is the Melting Sugar, and our strain is ex¬ 
ceptionally fine. The pods are very large, 
extremely tender, fine flavored, and are 
borne in great abundance on vines four to 
five feet high.
