THE AMERICAN GARDEN. 



Day's Early Sunrise Pea, 



This is a new and distinct variety from England, and 

 is one of the earliest marrow Teas. During tlie past 

 season, it has la-en tested liv many eminent gardeners, 



who were unanimous in pre icing it exceedingly 



proline, and of superb quality. It is a white wrinkled 

 marrow, very large for an early Pea, and of tine flavor ; 

 while in constit ution and hal.it it is hardy and robust. 

 It is from 2» 4 to M feet m height; flu- ports, which are 

 long, large, and well tilled, are produced in pairs and 



ill st completely .-over 11m- haulm, liv ils -rami size 



and tjuality it is specially adapted for market gar- 

 deners and for tield culture. 



Mr. Joseph Collard, Market Gardener, Preston, 

 England, says: --ft surpasses anything he has ever 

 seen or grown as a lirst early or general market 

 variety. The short, thick haulm, and enormous crop 

 of large, well-tilled pods, renders it particularly suit- 

 able for field culture." 



Mr. J. Ford (Gardener to H. K. H. the, Duke of Edin- 

 burgh), East-well, says: ':It. is of splendid quality, 

 very robust, and as early as ' Hingh-ader.' " A large 

 wrinkled marrow as e arly as this requires little rec- 

 ommendation, and is what all gardeners have long 

 wanted.
