produced in clusters of 4 to 6, the stems 
of which protrude outside of foliage. The 
pods are green, faintly striped with red

*QREGON GIANT— Giant pods a foot 
long; light green, striped carmine. This 
wonderful bean is now sold by market

size does not detract from its splendid 
quality. Pods thick meated, mild and free 
from fibre but the fully developed pods 
can be strung like the Kentucky Won- 
der. Pods a foot long and with large 
seeds developed are still good to use.
