HENDERSON A.CO., NEW YORK- 
PEA BOUNTIFUL. 
This comparatively new English variety is becoming very popular 
in Great Britain and France on account of its hardiness, productive¬ 
ness and fine quality. We have grown it two seasons in this country 
and find that it does well, even in localities where hot, dry climatic 
conditions sometimes check the development of wrinkled marrow 
peas. Round seeded peas arc not usually so tender and well flavored as 
wrinkled varieties, but Bountiful has a delightful rich flavor, Cjuite 
superior to all early hard sliell peas if gathered before too old. This re¬ 
markable feature, combined with its great yield of compactly-lilled 
])ods renders it of high value. Height of vine 3 feet. {See cut.) 
Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt., 35c. qt., $2.25 pk., $8.00 bush. 
“/ wisfi to state that those Bountiful Peas of yours are properly named, for mine 
produced the greatest yield of anything in the pea line in Morris County, and quali.y 
fine." P. 11. HEDGES, Madison, N. J.

Heroine is a medium early, green wrinkled Pea, combining quan¬ 
tity and quality in a degree surpassed by no other variety. It grows 
uniformly about 21 feet high, and is literally covered with its long, 
heavy, pointed pods. The quality of this pea is simply perfection — 
that rich, buttery, marrow-like flavor for which the peas grown in the 
gardens of Old England are celebrated. Price, 10c. pkt., 20c. pt,, 30c. 
qt., $2.00 pk., $7.00 bush. 
" This is the first year I hare grown your Heroine Pea and I think it is a wonder ; 
Miss Hitch asked me to send them some nice peas for some special occasion. I sent the 
Heroine, and I was sent for to give them the name of the peas— they were so relished. 
They do well as a second crop and are long-bearing."

HENDERSON’S DWARF EARLY PEA 
MELTING MARROW. 
This is one lof the best of the recent English introductions. 
Our stock has been thoroughly acclimatized and perfectly 
selected, and is therefore admirablyadaptcdforcultureintheU.S. 
It is peculiarly fitted to resist the trying weather conditions of 
the American summer, and yet it retains all the fine qualities of 
flavor and tenderness which have made English peas so famous. 
Henderson’s Melting Marrow Pea is early, but not the 
earliest Pea grown; it follows immediately after the extra early 
sorts, thus filling in the gap between these and the midsummer 
varieties, though by successive sowings Melting Marrow Peas 
may be long enjoyed. 
The plants are of robust, half-dwarf habit, growing about 15 
inches high, with sturdy branching stalks that are practically 
self-supporting, so that trellis or brush is not essential, though 
low brush or crossed sticks, if convenient, will not be misapplied. 
The massive pods are produced in prodigal abundance from 
ground to summit, and are packed with from six to eight im¬ 
mense wrinkled marrow Peas of a rich green color, which hue is 
maintained when cooked, thus appearing especialh^ attractive 
when served, while the delicious melting quality and superb 
rich buttery flavor is unequalled by any Pea of American origin.

*7 am pleased to tell you that Melting Marrow proved the best dwarf pea I 
have ever grown, and 1 have tried a great many durirrg my gardening experience 
of 59 years. The flavor was good and the yield etrormous." 
CiiAS. J. FOX, South London, Ont., Cda. 
“ Your new dwarf pea. Melting Marroio, is certainly the finest pea in 
existence. I do not believe there is another pea that can compare with it for 
earliness, size and flavor. 1 made the first planting on May 15th, and on 
June 29th {just 45 days), I picked the first mess, and they were the sweetest, 
lendercst and most delicious peas that we ever tasted. They are all and more than 
you claim for them." LLOYD H. SANDS, Tolona, Ills.
