Kilgore’s Nero Super Improved Colossal Peppers 
grown by Walton Bros, at Pompano, Florida 
BLIGHT RESISTANT WORLD BEATER. (New) (115 days.) 
I his new strain of World Beater was developed by many 
years of individual plant selections in Manatee County, Fla', 
to secure a strain of true, heavy yielding World Beater 
type that would resist blight and would no! drop its leaves 
during rainy weather or poor growing conditions when 
other strains of World Beater would not survive or would 
not produce a heavy crop of fruits. This is a very superior, 
disease resistant strain of World Beater which is' especially 
well adapted for a fall crop in Florida. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 45c; 14 lb. $1.40; 1 lb. $5.00. 
KILGORE'S IMPROVED RUBY GIANT. (115 days.) This im¬ 
proved strain of Ruby Giant which we have developed as the 
result of many years individual plant selections makes an ex¬ 
ceedingly strong, vigorous, upright growing plant, it being 
more disease resistant and withstanding poor growing con¬ 
ditions and still producing a good crop, better than other va¬ 
rieties of this type. Dark green fruits are somewhat similar 
to World Beater in shape, being large, four lobed, slightly 
tapering, and very attractive in appearance. The thick flesh 
is exceedingly sweet, mild, and of excellent quality. Our 
strain of this variety is extremely productive and bears over 
a long period, producing very large fruits uniformly true 
to type. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 40c; 14 lb. $1.15; 1 lb. $4.00. 
KILGORE'S NEW SUPER IMPROVED COLOSSAL. (110 
days.) After several years of very expensive, special breed¬ 
ing and selection work, we have developed a strain of the 
Colossal variety superior to anything ever offered Florida 
pepper growers. This new Super Improved Strain was thor¬ 
oughly tested in the Pompano, Florida, section last season, 
where it attracted a great deal of attention. The plant is very 
heavy, strong and vigorous, with exceedingly large heavy 
leaves which protect the fruits from sun scalding. The plants 
produce an immense yield of exceedingly large, uniformly 
thick-fleshed, four-lobed fruits, about five inches long and 
four and one-half inches wide. It takes very few of these 
large fruits to fill a one and one-half bushel crate. Unlike 
other strains of large fruited peppers, this improved strain 
continues to produce large fruits over a very long period 
making a heavy top set at the same time it matures a large 
crop of early fruits. Pepper growers who want enormous 
yields of exceedingly large size fruits throughout the season 
should by all means plant some of this new Super Improved 
strain. This variety survives poor growing conditions and 
still produces a heavy crop of large, fancy fruits better than 
other varities. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 45c; 14 lb. $1.40; 1 lb. $5.00. 
EARLY CALWONDER. (New) (115 days.) A new early 
maturing strain of California Wonder, maturing ten days to 
two weeks ahead of other stocks of this variety, and accord¬ 
ing to our Florida tests this new strain holds up and produces 
large size fruits over a long season. The plant is not as tall 
and erect in growth as regular California Wonder, but is 
more dwarf and spreading, although very vigorous and pro¬ 
lific. The fruits are three and four lobed and very attractive 
in appearance, being smooth, dark green in color, uniform 
and very thick meated. This new extra early strain should be 
planted by every grower interested in a thick meated type of 
pepper. 
Pkt. 5c; oz. 40c; 14 lb. $1.25; 1 lb. $4.50. 
IMPROVED CALIFORNIA WONDER. (125 days.) An out¬ 
standing, medium late variety, gaining in importance. Plant 
is vigorous, upright, prolific. The thick meated, large, heavy 
fruits average about four inches in length and about the same 
in diameter. We have improved this variety by making our 
strain more productive and longer bearing than most others. 
This is an excellent shipping type, holding up well in transit 
and on the market, and is in great demand for hauling by 
trucks because of its good bearing qualities.

eter. Three lobed, yellowish green in color, becoming bright
