A New Bush Bean 
McCREA’S LIMA 
The remarkably sweet flavor of this 
new variety is perhaps its greatest feature. 
Although the pods are small, the Beans 
themselves are very large and plump and 
they literally fill the pods to the bursting 
point. The vines are of compact growth 
and are wilt- and blight-resistant. 
This is a very early Bush Lima of the 
highest quality. It is ideal for all parts of 
New England as it withstands cold 
weather during the growing season and 
also wet weather at planting-time which 
often proves fatal to other varieties. Pkg.
