WHAT EXPERTS SAY ABOUT IT. 
“Carters Forerunner Cauliflower was sown on February 1st with Snowball and another well-known early 
variety. Planted in the open the third week in April, we commenced to cut compact heads on June 7U1. None of the 
Other varieties were near ready. I am much impressed with it, and can congratulate you on it as distinct and 
valuable.”— Edwin Beckett, Head Gardener to the lion. Vicary Gibbs. 
“ 1 grew your new Cauliflower in frames along with Snowball, and grown thus it was 8 to 10 days earlier, a closer 
head, and in all respects a better form. A most valuable introduction. I had it also on early holders in the open.” G. Wythes, 
late Head Gardener to His Grace the Duke of Northumberland. 
“Carters Forerunner Cauliflower is a marvel. I cut fine heads on June 6th, almost like Autumn Giant.” 
Mr. W. Humphrey, The Gardens, Loam pits.
