I. Mazagan. Early Mazag an. Hative de Mazagan. 
Plant vigorous, with 3 to 5 stems, 3 feet 9 inches high. Pods 
produced abundantly, erect or upright, 4 inches long, with 3 to 4 
small beans. Comes into use five days later than Long-pod, and is 
the latest of all. 
8. Sardy^s Pedigree Windsor. 
Plant of robust growth, 2 feet 6 inches high. Pods produced 
abundantly, generally curved downwards like the Long-pods, from 
5 to 6 inches long, with 3 large broad beans. This seems to be an 
intermediate variety between the Long-pods and Broad Windsor

other sorts. Pods very long, 7 to 8 inches, rather sparingly produced, 
with about 6 beans of about the same size as the Longpods ; they 
hang down so much as almost to rest on the ground. Ripe seed, large, 
dull fawn colour. This is the earliest and longest podded of all the 
broad beans. Is fit to gather 3 days before the Long-pods, and 8
