CARTERS SUMMER FAVOURITE CARROT. 
Carters Sunfimer Favourite {see Phot(\%raph above '). — Awarded Royal Horti- 
cultural Society’s Silver Medal. A splendid half-long, producing handsome, well-grown, 
bright cochineal-scarlet Carrots very early in the season. The quality is superb, and as an 
exhibition variety coming into use early it will be found invaluable for showing in the 
summer months. Eighty-two First Prizes reported to us during the past few seasons. 
Price 6d. and IS. per packet; is. 3d. per ounce. 
Carters Scarlet Perfection. — Awarded a Special Certificate of Merit at the 
Vegetable Conference of the Royal Horticultural Society, and awarded First Prize, R.H.S. 
Great Autumn Exhibition, 1905. A distinct and greatly improved form of Garden Carrot. 
It is midway in length between the LoJig Surrey and the well-known Intermediate, with 
the bright scarlet colour of the Surrey. The flesh is solid, crisp, and fine flavoured. 
Invaluable alike for table, exhibition, and market purposes. 240 P'irst Prizes reported 
by customers. 
Price 6d. per packet ; is. per ounce. 
Ca.rters Blood Red. — This Carrot is quite distinct, and has many good and new 
qualities. It has a depth ot colour not hitherto seen in Carrots, the texture ot its 
flesh, while solid and crisp, is most tender, and entirely loses the pithy heart found in 
many large-growing varieties. It has handsome long roots. 
Price 6d. and is. per packet.
