. Burpee's farm annual, 1892. Nursery stock Pennsylvania Philadelphia Catalogs; Flowers Catalogs; Vegetables Catalogs; Seeds Catalogs. BURPEE'S RUBY KING PEPPER. It is eight years since we first introduced this mag- nificent variety, and so steadily has it gained in popular favor that we annually sell a greater bulk of seed of this one variety than of all other red peppers. We have grown a fine crop of our extra selected seed and can unhesitatingly recommend it as the best and most profitable mild red pepper for market or family use. Every one who has seen our crops has been enthusiastic in praise of the beautiful plants, crowded with the large, handsome fruits, of a bright, ruby-red color. The peppers ordinarily grow 4% to 6 inches long by 3% to 4\i inches through. Added to their beautiful col- or, when ripe, is the great desideratum that they are remarkably iniJd and pleas- ant to the taste; in this respect unequaled by any other Red Pepper, and equaled only by Biir- pee's Golden Upright, our grand new yellow pepper. We cannot too strongly recommend the Ruby King- so mild and pleasant is their flavor that they can even be sliced and eaten with pepper and vinegar (like tomatoes or cucumbers), and make a very pleas- ant and appetizing salad; while for stuffing, or for pepper hash, no other variety can equal them.
