70 days. This early variety was released in 1942 
by the U. S. Dept. of Agriculture. In plant type, 
growth and habit, it is very similar to the old Bur-

a higher percentage of 4 bean pods. Unlike Burpee’s 
Bush, it is a flat seeded type. It is distinctive, how- 
ever, in that it is the earliest of all large Bush Limas.
