Golden-Eyed Wax. An early, vigorous variety, free from rust and 
blight, bearing abundantly beautiful, tender, large, flat, waxy-golden 
pods. It grows 1 Yi feet high, holding the pods well off the ground. 
Market Wax, Henderson’s. A new, unusually robust growing, flat, 
immense wax-podded variety; pods showy and handsome, clear yel¬ 
low, stringless and of fine quality. A prolific cropper, verv early for 
so large a sort, and also a fine flavor and valuable as a shell Bean. .. 
Hodson Long Pod Wax. (See Specialties , page 16.) . 
Refugee Wax. Possesses the valuable characteristics of the green- 
podded Refugee; is wax-podded and of great productiveness; practi¬ 
cally everbearing. Pods handsome, round, transparent yellow,

flat wax pods, not liable to rust or blister. 
Yosemite Mammoth Wax, Henderson’s. A grand variety, yielding 
prodigiously immense golden-yellow, waxy pods 10 to 14 inches long; 
they are thick, meaty and absolutely stringless, cooking tender and 
delicious. It is a robust-growing sort, needing to be planted twice as

BEANS, BUSH LIMA. 
“Henderson” Improved Bush Lima. (See Specialties, page 13.) . 
Henderson’s Early Giant Bush Lima. (SeeSpecialties, page 13.) 2Pkt. 25c. 
“Henderson” Bush Lima. The original — about 3 days earlier than 
the Improved—but pods and Beans are smaller. 
Burpee’s Bush Lima. A bush form of the Large White Lima, grow¬ 
ing about 20 inches high; the pods and Beans are nearly the same size 
as the latter. While not as early as the “Henderson,” its large size 
commends it to many.

Lima. The plants grow 20 to 30 inches in height, erect and of true 
bush form; pods 4 to 5 inches long, contain 3 to 5 large, delicious

season. 
Dreer’s Bush Lima. A bush variety of the Dreer’s Lima. Beans thick, 
sweet and succulent, growing close together in the pods. Growth 
vigorous, about 18 inches high, with abundant foliage, always suc¬ 
ceeding even in dry seasons.
