Awarded the FIRST CLASS CERTIFICATE of the ROYAL HORTICULTURAL SOCIETY, 1906. 
Pods longrer than any other Pea in cultivation. 
This grand Pea, which has caused such a stir in the Horticultural world during 
the past season, is the outcome of a cross between Alderman and Edwin Beckett Im 
general character it resembles the former, but the pods are considerably larger than 
either parent. In our own trials it has amply demonstrated its wonderful superiority

FIRST PRIZE, and was pronounced by leading experts to be without doubt the finest Pea 
ever seen. It is exceedingly prolific, and the pods hang mostly in pairs. Height, 5 to

rs withorrt doubt the largest podded Pea I know of. I consider it a grand Pea for a moderately rich soil, as the 
large pods are more readily filled than when too strongly grown. Those in want of the largest pods for exhibition 
purposes cannot do better than grow it.”— Mr. James Gibson, The Gardens, Welbeck
