Is what has long 
been desired, but 
which growers 
hardly expected 
ever to obtain—a 
perfect bush form 
of the true lus- 
cious Large Lima 
Bean. Bushes 
grow from 18 to 20 
inches high, or 


rap ously. Itis anim- 
ZB mense yielder, each 


v= ea ee ; handsome large 
pods, well filled with very large beans, identical in size and flavor to the 
well-known Large Vole Limas. Of incalculable value for the reason that 
now the largest and best Lima Beans can be cheaply raised in quantity, with- 
out the expense and labor attached to the use of poles.
