TOMATO 
Carters “Sunrise” Tomato 
First-Class Certificate, Royal Horticultural Society — Indoor Cultivation 
F.C.C. confirmed as Outdoor Variety after growth at Wisley 
During an extensive trial of Tomatoes made by the Royal Horticultural Society, seventy- 
one varieties were sent in from all the leading houses. The only First-Class Certificate was given to 
Carters “Sunrise,” and the following note is attached to the report: — “Tomatoes have reached such 
perfection that it is now very difficult to raise a variety superior to those already in commerce. In this 
trial only one stood out as being of exceptional value, viz., ‘Sunrise.’ ” 
It is some time since such a high honour has been granted to a Tomato. 
The chief points in Sunrise are — 
Its Earliness. — It ripens days earlier than most varieties. 
Its Cropping Properties. — See Photographs and Testi- 
monials. 
Its Healthy and Robust Constitution. — No trace of 
Disease. 
Its Solid but Delicate Flesh. — Contains very few seeds 
and practically no eye. 
Its Evenness of Size as a Dessert Fruit. 
Its Bright Scarlet Colour and rich Acid Flavour. 
Its equal value for Indoor or Outdoor Cultivation.

Dear Sirs: I grew your Sunrise Tomato this year and wish to say 
that it is the best and earliest tomato I have ever grown. 
The seeds were sown the same day with four other varieties and 
all treated alike, and I was picking splendid, well-formed ripe fruit 
from your Sunrise plants fifteen days earlier than any of the other 
varieties. Yours very truly, 
(Signed) ALEXANDER MICHIE, Plymouth, Mass. 
"We grew fifty plants of Sunrise Tomato in pots here. It is a good 
cropper, sets very freely, and bears fine medium-sized fruits of splendid 
quality and flavour.” — Mr. J. Whytock. 
“A marvellous cropping variety, and destined to become the Tomato 
for market growers especially. I never saw its equal for cropping, and 
the fruits are just the size the market growers require — medium, with 
good appearance and no waste." — Mr. B. Ashton. 
"I have grown your Sunrise Tomato since first it came out, and I con- 
sider it the best Tomato ever sent out. It is earlier than most, no 
trouble to set, nice even size, and very heavy cropper; above all, the 
quality is unsurpassed." — Mr. H. W. Blake.
