.Carters’ Forcing Pea. — Our photograph above represents the true character of this acquisition, 
which will be found one of the most valuable Peas for under-glass culture. It was selected from many seedlings that 
have been under trial at our experimental grounds, originating from the same remarkable family as Carter s’ Daisy. Its 
stocky growth is rarely more than one foot in height, the fine pods are numerously borne, and contain from six to 
eight large Peas, possessing the true marrow-fat flavour when cooked. This fine Pea will commend itself not only to 
professional gardeners who produce Peas nearly the year round, but also to amateurs having a greenhouse or vmery, 
doing practically nothing through the winter months, and who can, with this hardy Pea, raise supplies for their table 
very early in the year. 
In sealed packets, price 2 S. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart. 
PEAS AT EASTER. 
“ I decided in January to grow a good, batch of Peas in pots, and sowed on January 28th Carters' Forcing and Carters' Dwarf Favourite , all in 
6o’s sized pots, and placed in the early vinery. When about 4 inches high they were potted into 32-sized pots and placed back. As soon as the 
vines began to darken them and more light was required, I placed them in a heated pit. They came into bloom on March 20th. I sent the first 
dish to table Easter Sunday, and my employer said they were equal in size and flavour to any marrowfats grown in the open.” — Mr. VV. J. Empson,
