Nursery stock Pennsylvania Philadelphia Catalogs; Flowers Pennsylvania Catalogs; Vegetables Pennsylvania Catalogs; Seeds Pennsylvania Catalogs. BLISS'S EVER-BEARING PEA. Height of vines, eighteen inches to two feet; pods three to four inches long, each pod producing six to eight wrinkled peas; size of peas very large, half an inch and over in diameter; quality unsurpassed in sweetness. Its habit of growth is of a peculiar branching character, form- ing as many as ten stalks from a single root stalk. One hujidred pods have been counted on a single vine. The indi\'idual branches are of extraordinary strength and sub- stance, so that when hilled up properly they stand up well without brushing. For continuance of bearing this variety- is unexcelled—a characteristic which gives it especial value for late summer and autumn use. After repeated pickings of quantities of full-sized pods, the vines continue to be covered with blossoms and buds developing to maturity in turn, and making it practically as perpetual a bearer as can be found in the pea tribe.
