BUSH LIMA BEAN 
d his newest and best Bush Lima represents the highest achievement in Bean breeding. 
We the pioneer introducers of the Bush Lima— have since been constantly improving them 
and we are now enabled to offer our patrons, in Henderson’s Early Giant, a Bush Lima that 
has attained the acme of perfection, surpassing any other strain or type on the market. The 
plants, of true bush form, IL 2 feet in height, are of healthy, sturdy, upright growth — requiring 
neither poles nor stakes—and bear, from July until frost, almost unbelievable quantities of 5 to 
6-inch pods, each containing usually four large, thick Beans averaging as large as those of the large 
Pole Limas and whether used green or cured they are of superb quality — tender, rich and but¬ 
tery, the true Lima flavor. In the green state their tender freshness is maintained beyen 1 the 
ordinary, accounted for by the pods being unusually fleshy and thick and the foliage luxuriant 
and sheltering. Other merits of this phenomenal Bush Lima are earliness, abundance and 
continuity of yield. First pickings fit for the table may be taken in the latitude of New York 
in July, and from that time until killed by frost a continuous supply of this most luscious of 
Beans may be gathered. ( See cut.) Price, per packet, 15c., 2 packets for 25c., 35c. pint,

A r eports F about Henderson's Early Giant Bush Lima SAME E STORY 
I must say that your new Bush Lima Beans last year gave us supreme satisfaction. 'In my nineteen 
years of gardening experience I have never tasted any that equaled them in flavor." 
CHARLES E. JONES, Lake View, III. 
Your Bush Lima Beans — Early Giant — were excellent, fully equal to Pole Limas, and so much earlier• 
1 wo rows 80 feet long gave us all we could use from July until frost and we gathered liberally. They were so 
delicious. Mrs. CIIAS. MORTON, Chambersburg, Pa. 
“/ must say the Early Giant are the best bush limas I ever grew for size — 
bearing and flavor. The plants hung full all summer and fall." 
G. L. JOHNSON, Springfield, Mass. 
The Improved "HENDERSON" Bush Lima Bean 
Bush Lima Beans are now considered a necessity in almost 
every garden. This popularity is due to their dwarf, bushy growth, 
requiring no poles or brush. There are several types of Bush Limas, 
all of which have their particular merits, but all points considered, 
the type we introduced—the “Henderson” Bush Lima—has stood 
the test of time, and is now more largely grown than all others 
combined. All impartial critics admit that it excels in all 
sential features. The only adverse criticism made on the 
original variety was the small size of the individual 
Bean. In the Improved 11 Henderson, ” this is entirely- 
overcome; the green Bean measures about 1 inch 
long, by % of an inch in breadth, and, further 
they are plump, very tender, and of exqui¬ 
sitely rich, true, buttery Lima flavor, 
whether used green or dried for winter. 
For earliness and continuous productive¬ 
ness the Improved “Henderson ” is a veritr 
able “ pick-and-come-again ” Lima Bean 
until killed by frost. They are at least 10 
to 12 days earlier than other types of Bush 
Limas, and 2 to 3 weeks earlier than Pole 
Limas. (See cut.) Price 15c. pkt., 25c. pt.,
