CARROT. 
CARTERS’ 
IMPROVED 
TYPES. 
Awarded a Special Certificate of Merit at the Vegetable 
Conference of the Royal Horticultural Society. 
As shown in the Photograph, we offer a distinct and greatly improved form of 
Garden Carrot. It is midway in length between the Long Surrey and the well-known 
Intermediate, with the bright vermilion-scarlet colour of the Surrey. The flesh is solid, 
crisp, and fine flavoured. Invaluable alike for table, exhibition, and market purposes. 
“ The Carrots which I produced from your Seed have taken no less than nine 
First Prizes ; in fact, they have taken First wherever I have sent them. The variety 
was ‘Scarlet Perfection.’” — Mr. J. A. Watkins, Bromesberrow Heath. 
Carters’ Scarlet Perfection Carrot. — A s its name implies its colour 
is perfect, and this is not its only good quality, for its shape and flavour when cooked 
are first rate. W. S , in “The Garden.” 
In sealed packets, price Is. 6d. per ounce. 
Awarded Royal Horticultural Society’s Silver Medal. 
A great acquisition, producing handsome, well-grown, bright cochineal-scarlet 
Carrots, very early in the season. The Photograph represents approximately its 
natural size, having been taken from a specimen grown in our experimental grounds. 
The quality is superb, and as an Exhibition variety coming into use early it will be 
found invaluable for showing in the summer months. This fine early Carrot is largely 
grown by the market gardeners around Sandy in Bedfordshire, the best district in the 
country for this vegetable. 
Carrot Summer Favourite. — I had this superb variety on trial this season, 
and am very pleased with the quality and the way this root matures, as it is 
superior to the Short Horn, to which type it belongs, but is of a thicker build, without 
much top, and is a splendid summer variety in gardens where quality and quantity- 
are needed. The colour of Summer Favourite is distinct from most others — bright 
cochineal-scarlet — with a very small core for the size of root, and few Carrots are 
more shapely. Far exhibition purposes it will take a leading position on account «f 
its siz», shape aad celeur.— The Garden. 
In sealed packets, price Is. 6d. per ounce.
