Plant of a strong and robust habit of gro\vth, havin<^ very dark 



blnish-green blotched folhge, and a stem 3| feet high, which is 



from the ground. The pods number about 1 I on a plant, and are 

 produced singly or in pairs ; when ready to gather they are rather 

 flattened, but as they become ripe they assume a roundish shape. 

 They contain on an average 8 peas in each, and these are of a 

 very dark olive-green colour, rather thick in the skin, and very 

 closely packed, so much so as to be quite flattened where they 

 come in contact. The ripe seed is very dark blue.
