This green seeded selection is similar to the Jersey Lima of 
years ago which has never been excelled. The best form of 
Jersey Limas on the market today for both private and market 
gardeners, unsurpassed in flavor, of superior quality, averaging 
4 or 5 beans to the pod, which is 43^ to 53^ inches long.

DWARF or BUSH LIMA BEANS 
Two weeks earlier than Pole Limas. Average height of vine, 14 to 20 inches. Two pounds will 
plant 100 yards of row or 40 to 60 pounds to an acre. No one should be without one of the following 
varieties of Dwarf Limas in his garden. We cannot recommend them too highly. They are two weeks 
earlier than the Pole Limas and much easier to raise, as no poles or stiings are required. Their flavor, 
however, is not as appetizing as the old-fashioned Pole Lima. Plant in drills 30 to 35 inches apart, dropping 
the beans 4 to 5 inches apart. If too thick, they will not do well. Do not plant in cold ground as they are 
liable to rot. If possible plant Lima Beans with eyes down. Deeply rooted plants continue to grow after 
others stop. 
BURPEE’S BUSH LIMA—77 Days. Seed more nearly re¬ 
sembling the old Jersey Pole Lima than any other, but a trifle 
smaller. Flat, usually having the appearance of a cut on both 
sides of the eye. This is a lima bean borne in full-sized pods on 
plants of a dwarf habit. The pods average 4 to 5 inches long 
and contain an average of 2 or 3 beans, although some pods 
contain 4 beans—maturing for the table about 10 days earlier 
than the earliest Pole Lima. Vines do not averaging over 20 
inches high. 3^ lb. 35c lb. 40c 5 lbs. $1.35 10 lbs. $3.50 
FORDHOOK BUSH LIMA—76 Days. Seed large, oval,

Lima. Potato lima type. Foliage dark green, bush habit, 
erect. Average height, 16 to 20 inches, according to soil, quite 
bushy, branching freely. Pods 3 to 4 inches long, borne in 
clusters, averaging 3 or 4 thick-seeded beans.

with a tinge of yellow. Height of vine, about 14 inches, com¬ 
pact. Leaves, small and pointed, more of a metallic dark

tain 3 or 4 small beans. Commercially known as Baby Lima.
