ANDREWS-BURRI SEED ANNUAL AND PRICE LIST 

PEAS 

LAXTON PROGRESS 
CULTURE—Sow as early as possible a few of some of 
the early varieties in warm, sandy soil. The seed can 
be sown in rows in a very satisfactory way. It is best 
to sow in an open way with a hoe, the full width of it, 
and broadcast the seed thinly in the bottom. Later 
plantings should be of the wrinkled varieties, they are 
better yielders, sweeter and very finely flavored. Early 
varieties will mature in about 50 or 60 days, later 
varieties in about 70 to 85 days. 
WESTERN GIANT—This truly is a giant 
podded pea of recent introduction. Its mam- 
moth long, dark green pods, 514 to 6 inches 
long, are slightly curved, the vines about 26 
inches high, produce a bountiful crop about 73 
days from planting. Unlike many varieties of 
its season, the quality is rich in flavor and will 
remain tender and sweet several days after 
picking. 
HUNDREDFOLD—This is, without doubt, the 
very best dwarf pea ever grown. It is the best- 
flavored and the largest-podded dwarf-growing 
sort in existence. It is ready about three days 
after the earliest sorts, and bears an enormous 
crop of handsome, intensely dark green, fairly 
broad and pointed pods, 4 inches long, contain- 
ing about 8 large, dark green peas of excellent 
quality. The vines are 16 inches high, sturdy, 
and resist heat well.

THOMAS LAXTON—Days to maturity, 73. A 
variety having been originated in England by 
Mr. Thomas Laxton of Bedford, a noted Eng- 
lish horticulturist. This pea is hardy and slight- 
ly earlier than Gradus and a more abundant 
yielder. The pods resemble Gradus in shape, 
excepting that they are blunt-ended. They will 
attain a length of 414 inches. They are straight, 
inclined toward roundness and are well filled. 
The vines will grow to a height of 30 inches. 
WORLD’S RECORD—56 days—Seed wrin- 
kled, large, cream and green color. Pods are 
pointed, about 4 inches long, and broad. An 
early type of the celebrated Gradus, very fre- 
quently used as an early Gradus. Height of vine 
24 to 30 inches, light green. Fine, showy, sin- 
gle pods, with 7 or 8 peas in each. Vines me- 
dium heavy. A wonderful, early pea for market 
and home gardener. 
LAXTON’S PROGRESS—A new variety of 
great merit and popularity. The pods are large, 
4 to 414 inches long, and of a fine dark green 
color. Vines grow only 18 to 20 inches high, and 
bear a heavy crop of handsome pods. Being 
one of the earliest of the sweet wrinkled sorts, 
Laxton’s Progress is in great demand every- 
where. Matures in about 55 to 58 days. 
LITTLE MARVEL—Days to maturity, 60. The 
vines of this variety will grow to a height of 
15 inches, producing pods 234 to 3 inches in 
length. This variety resembles the Nott’s Ex- 
celsior in vines, habit of growth and quality. 
The pods are considerably longer, very often 
being produced in pairs, and are straight, 
slightly broader than Nott’s Excelsior. 
ALDERMAN—A very fine pea for main crop. 
Height of vine about 4 feet. Yields more than 
almost any other variety. The pods resemble 
Telephone, but are larger, deeper green and 
better filled, while the vines are of more robust 
growth and more prolific. It is really an im- 
proved Telephone and the best of this type. 
The pods are immense, often 5 inches long and 
contain 8 to 10 large peas. Matures medium 
late.
