EARLIEST GARDEN PEAS 
Carters Eight Weeks Pea 
GREEN, ROUND, 15 INCHES 
This is the Earliest Dwarf Pea in the world, 
proved not only from our own trials, but 
from the expert reports we receive from 
time to time. A very hardy variety, 
possessing all the good points of the best 
type American Wonder, which was one of 
its parents. As both a forcing and an early 
border variety it has become a boon to 
gardeners whose demands are heavy early 
in the season. The seed is slightly dented, 
and of the same colour as its other parent, 
William the First. The pods are freely 
produced, and well filled with sweet- 
tasting peas. It is a splendid forcer. 
Price, .90 per qt. ; .50 per pt. ; .25 per pkt. 
Carters Forcing Pea ( Wrinkled , 1 foot). — 
A valuable Pea for early culture. Its 
stocky growth is rarely more than 1 foot 
in height. It commends itself not only to 
professional gardeners who are required 
to produce Peas nearly the year round, but 
also to amateurs who can, with this sturdy 
Pea, raise supplies for the table very early 
in the year. 
Price, .65 per qt.; .35 per pt. ; .20 per pkt. 
LARGE PODDED, EARLY ROUND 
VARIETIES 
Carters “Giant” Lightning 
and 
Carters “Giant” Blue 
Express Peas 
After years of patient labour we have 
Carters New Giant Lightning pleasure in introducing the above magnifi- 
cent Peas. There is no doubt that these 
types will speedily displace the smaller-podded varieties, as in addition to the increased size of pod 
the haulm is stronger, the cropping much heavier, and the flavour superior to the older varieties.

Pea. ( See Photograph.)

Carters “Giant” Blue Express ( Blue Round, 3 to 4 feet). — The new large-podded early blue round Pea. 
Price, .90 per qt. ; .50 per pt. ; .25 per pkt. 
In establishments where Peas are required very early, these Giant introductions will be much appre- 
ciated, as it is well known that round Peas are hardier and generally can be sown earlier than the wrinkled 
varieties.
