Fordhook Bush Lima 
JACKSON WONDER 
Also called ‘Calico Bean” because of the color of the 
seed, which is buff, mottled with black. It is almost drought 
resistant, and very prolific. In growth it resembles Hender- 
son’s Bush, bearing pods 3 inches long, containing 3 medium 
size flat beans. 
CANGREEN 
TAEAMERICA SS SELECTION 7 Honorable Mention 1943 
In all other respects resembling the Henderson Bush Lima, 
CANGREEN is notable for the green color of the fleshy part 
of the seed (cotyledons) in the dry stage. This makes it 
attractive for canning, either by the canner or in the home. 
It is also very prolific, yielding a large crop of pods and 
seed.

\ALEAMERICAAS) SELECTION 7 Bronze Medal 1945 
Promising new Fordhook-type lima, with thick seeds, 3 or 4 to the pod, of finest flavor. 
The pods are very uniform, 32 to 4 inches long, and hold their size on the late sets. The early 
and total yields are heavy, and hot weather does not seem to affect its yield. 
BURPEE’S IMPROVED BUSH 76 days 
Similar to Burpee’s Bush but slightly earlier. The pods grow 4Y2 te 5Y2 inches long and are 
filled with large, plump beans more oval than flat. The plants make a vigorous, upright growth 
with heavy foliage. 
HENDERSON’S BUSH 67 days 
The earliest small Bush Lima. Sometimes called “Baby Lima” and in the South “Butter 
Bean’. The plants are medium size, dark green, bearing pods 3 inches long containing 3 
small, flat beans. When picked 
at the proper stage, the beans 
retain an attractive greenish 
tint and have a most delicious 
flavor.
