74 Arthur T.Boddington. 342 West 14th St.. New York City THIRD DIVISION-MAIN CROP The Garden Pea W^onder Boddingtons Mammoth Marrowfat This undoubtedly is the largest Pea in cultivation, with larger pods than any Pea heretofore intro- duced—pods running from 6 to 7 inches in length—filled with peas not unduly large, of the true mar- rowfat flavor. BODDINGTON'S MAMMOTH MARROWFAT may be considered a second-early or main-crop Pea ; the height is from 5 to 6 feet. BODDINGTON'S MAMMOTH MARROWFAT is a heavy cropper and exceedingly prolific, the pods hanging mostly in pairs ; the con- stitution is wonderfully vigorous and hardy, far excelling, in this respect, many of the marrow va- rieties ; the color of both pods and haulm is a rich, velvety green,— to be exact, one might call it a Mammoth Alderman. "I sent a sample of Boddinj;ton's Mammoth Marrowfat Peas to the Alaska- ^'ukon Exposition last fall, and received a diploma and a bronze medal for them. The peas were grown in my garden here. They grew to an enormous size." \'ours truly, Mrs. F. Df)REE, Skagway, Alaska.

This large AI-assisted collection comprises about 60,000 images of botanical drawings and illustrations. It spans from the 14th to 19th century. As of today, we estimate the total number of botanical illustrations in our archive as 200,000 and growing. The "golden age" of botanical illustration is generally considered to be the 18th and 19th centuries, a time when there was a great deal of interest in botany and a proliferation of botanical illustrations being produced. During this period, many of the great botanical illustrators of the time, such as Maria Sybilla Merian, Pierre-Joseph Redouté, and John James Audubon, were active and produced some of the most iconic and influential botanical illustrations of all time. In addition to being used for scientific purposes, botanical illustrations were also highly prized for their beauty and were often used to decorate homes and other public spaces. Many of the most famous botanical illustrations from this period are still admired and collected today for their beauty and historical significance. All large Picryl collections were made possible with the development of neural image recognition. We made our best to reduce false-positive image recognition to under 5%.
