Burgess’ Climbing Trip-L-Crop Tomato 
Often Produces 2 to 3 Bushels from One Vine 
Burgess’ Climbing TRIP-L-CROP Tomato is a variety 
with many superior qualities. Vines grow rapidly to 
-a height of 10 to 18 feet (sometimes more than 20 feet) 
: A trellis, however, is not 
necessary as it will outyield other varieties when grown 
in bush form. The beautiful, large crimson fruits 
average 3'% inches across and 234 inches deep, with 
some as deep as 3144 inches and as wide as 5 inches 
across. The fruits are solid, with meaty center sur- 
rounded by small seed cells which are separated by 
solid divisions, which makes the tomato unexcelled for 
both slicing and canning. It is free from blight and 
disease and drought resistant. Two or three vines will 
produce enough fruit for an average family. It is not 
uncommon to pick more than two bushels of ripe to- 
matoes from one vine. For big yields and tall vines 
start early and set out as soon as danger from frost is 
past. Pkt., 15¢; 2 pkts., 25c.
