CANNELLS’ NEW EARLY WRINKLED PEA. 
CANNELLS “ ENGLISH WONDER. 
THE GARDEN, September 19th, 1891. 
Cannells’ “ English Wonder ” Pea. — This is a valuable early dwarf Tea, some 1(> inches in 
height, which has received the above name. The pods are freely borne, are long and narrow, 
and contain from o to 1 1 peas very closely set, of a dark green colour and of capital quality. I saw 
it growing at the Eynsford Seed Farm the other day, being tested for late work also, and it 
answered admirably. These very dwarf Peas arc out of character when staked ; they should 
be sown in rows 20 inches apart, when, as in this case, they crop profusely. Frequent 
gatherings of such Peas as these in September would prove invaluable to gardeners whose 
vegetable requirements are heavy. 
JOURNAL OF HORTICULTURE, July 30th, 1891. 
Mr. E. Molyneux. 
For some years I have depended upon American Wonder for supplying us with the first 
green peas, because of its good quality, though some other varieties are a few days earlier, and 
earliness is the first consideration with some people. This year I have given Cannells English 
Wonder a trial alongside the old favourite. The result is, I find the Dew variety superior to 
the old one in every respect. The growth is similar, but the pods are larger and the Peas 
superior in quality. The two sorts were sown February 13th, and gathered June 23rd. They 
suffered much by a frost on Whit Monday, or would have been ready a week sooner. 
Mr. W. Baines, South Clifton, Newark. 
English Wonder Peas are in every way a success, abundance of crop, well filled, delicious 
in flavour. The American Wonder cannot put a patch upon them — in a word, they are 
unrivalled, taking them all round as an early Pea. I have tried them in three different kinds 
of soil, and they seem at home anywhere — strong clay, strong soil, light sand. 
Mr. W. E. Corder, W. R. Depot, Wakefield. 
The English Wonder Pea I got from you this last spring I consider it far in advance of 
American Wonder —larger pods and better filled, and a splendid cropper.
