C;i LEGUMINOUS PLANTS. 



The plants are tender ; the pods do not fill freely ; and the 

 variety cannot be recommended for cultivation.

^oSS.^Bnff near tne ground. The pods are single and in 

 pairs, and, as they ripen, become thick and 

 fleshy, with a rough, pitted, and shrivelled surface : they 

 contain from six to seven large peas, which are nearly round, 

 and about seven tenths of an inch in diameter in the green 

 state. The ripe seed is white. 



The variety is comparatively early. Planted May 1, it 

 blossomed the 25th of June, arid the pods were ready to pluck 

 about the 10th of July. 



A very valuable sort, producing a large, well-filled pod, 

 and is a most abundant bearer. It has, however, a peculi- 

 arity, which by many is considered an objection, the pod 

 is white, instead of green, and presents, when only full grown, 

 the appearance of over-maturity. This objection is chiefly 

 made by those who grow it for markets, and who find it diffi- 

 cult to convince their customers, that, notwithstanding the 

 pod is white, it is still in its highest perfection. So far from 

 being soon out of season, it retains its tender and marrowy 

 character longer than many other varieties. 



A new sort, called the " Lincoln Green," is said to possess 

 all the excellences of the Ringwood Marrow, without the 

 objectionable white pod.

DWARF PROLIFIC, occasionally branching. The pods are usually 

 single, but sometimes in pairs, nearly three 

 inches long, half an inch broad, almost straight, and some- 

 what tapering towards the point. The surface is quite smooth,
