White 5 I 5 | Princess Helene 5 | Mixed 4 pkts 10c, pkt 3 Mr. Park:âLast March I planted three seeds of Dolichos. The plants proved to be hardy, handsome vines, of rapid, dense growth. They very quickly reached a height of ten or more feet, and covered a space equally wide. Although an annual, on account of rapid gr owth the plants are useful for covermg fences and unsightly places.âMrs. J. A. R., Santa Clara Co., Cal. Mr. Park:âLast spring I received a packet of Dolichos. I planted them early in April, near an old fence that I wished to cover up. Now they ^ are still covered with their large sprays of lovely flowers, three or four colors, and bunches of beans in different stages of development. These are ' the most attractive things in the garden.~L. C. F., Son.
