©his new Lima Bean from the South, by reason of its wonderful productiveness and re-j markable foliage, has cre- ated quite a sensation the last two years. In competition for a $50.00 prize in 91 a vine was raised measuring 16 feet, 3 inches in length, bearing 1729 pods. Its beautiful deep cut foliage, from whence it obtains its aame, is so hand- some as to recom- t. mend it as worthy f. of cultivation for an ornamental climb- ing vine. The vines blossom and bear pods from top to bottom, as is well shown in the illus- tration. Pods are of the Sewee type, well rilled with pure white beans which are tender and of fine flavor. The vines branch freely in ev- ery direction, and continue to blossom and bear through- out the season, ma- turing beans fit for the table shortly after Henderson's Bush Limas come ~» in bearing. I am ^satisfied it will be quite a curiosity and would recom- mend it as worthy of a trial to all my friends. Packet 15 Cts. Pint, 50 Cts. NO LOVER OF DELICIOUS MEATY SUGAR CORN CAN AFFORD TO MISS/T. SURETOPLEASE THE MOST EXACTING CUSTOMER MEDIUM EARLY, WONDERFULLY PRODUCTIVE BUT ABOVE ALL OFTHE FINEST FLAVOR.
