Inoculation of Legumes Insures Success 
“We live in Kyusha, southern 
Japan, and our weather is suitable 
for planting now. 
“We have always had good luck 
with Meyer’s seeds and with four 
acres of ground, quantities of humus 
and light soil, and two Japanese 
gardeners, I think we shall do well.”

A wax strain of Asgrow Black Valentine. It is in the 
same season and has an oval pod and the same ruggedness 
and productiveness. One of the outstanding characteristics 
of the variety is the ease with which the Beans can be 
picked, because it seems that the pods all hang on the out- 
side of the plant. Plant large and erect; pods golden wax, 
oval, nearly straight, stringless at all stages, tender and of 
good quality. The most prolific wax-podded variety, equal 
in yield to the best green-podded types. 58 days

Outstanding for its versatility in the home garden, local market garden and with 
the commercial processor. An early-maturing Bean ready for picking in 51 days or 
normally two to three days earlier than Tendergreen. 
Bush-type plant 15 to 16 inches tall, with rather wide spread, developing a strong 
frame, giving it a distinct ruggedness. Rich, medium dark green foliage. Outstand- 
ing for its productiveness. Pods 514 to 6 inches long, round, stringless, very attrac- 
tive, medium light green. Notably straight to very slight curve, with excellent 
tenderness. Meaty pods, holding the edible stage well after pod has developed to 
largesize.

Excellent for home garden and market garden and has some unique characteristics 
which should make it well adapted for processing. Compared to Tendergreen, this 
Bean is about two days later, grows taller and is resistant to common bean mosaic, 
bean virus 15 and powdery mildew. 
Bush-type plant, 18 to 20 inches tall, with an unusually excellent, rugged frame. 
The foliage is very dark green. Pods are borne well off the ground. It has shown up 
as a most productive Bean with high yield i in trials in practically all areas where it 
has been tested. Pods are deep green, 51% to 6 inches long, round, tender and meaty. 
Remarkably smooth and very straight. Holds smooth edible stage far longer than 
any of the other recently introduced mosaic-resistant varieties. 58 days.
