CARTERS’ BUTTERCUP PEA (see Fhotograph Best described as a 
hardy type of Daisy Pea. A very fine and robust main crop Pea, with 
long, handsome, well-filled pods. Height, about 2 feet. Pods rich green, 
produced in pairs, averaging 10 peas in each. We have counted as many as 22 
pods on a single plant ready to gather at one time. May be described as a nearly 
main crop, with particularly robust habit. The large, deep green seed, which is 
almost round, retains the sweet Marrowfat flavour when cooked. Peas having 
seed of this character are well adapted for cold, wet, and exposed situations. 
Price 6d. & is. per packet, 2 S. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart.

"Carters’ Biilleicnp, a type of Daisy Pea, but a 
week or more earlier, is a very fine, robust form of 
Pea, bears freely pods of great length and size in 
pairs ; the pods are of a beautiful green, and the Peas 
are very rich. It has grown well this season, and 
very strong. Another variety which need not have 
slicks ; the better if short slicks were used, as the 
foliage and pods are so heavy they ought to be kept 
off the ground.” 
Froirr the Gardiners' Chtonic/e. 
“Carters’ BuUercup is a grand cropper of dwarf 
habit. I think I never saw so fruitful a dwarf Pea, 
the rows being quite a picture. The quality is good, 
and the pois large and well filled. For a garden 
where dwarf Peas are most appreciated no variety 
could be more profitably grown as a second early.”
