A cross between Early Morn and Express (Seedling No. 208). — This first early 
Pea can best be described as an early Ne Plus Ultra, having pods similar in shape and 
colour to that variety; it is a few days later than our Early Morn , growing rather 
taller, but possessing the robust constitution of its other parent ( Express ) ; for early sowing we can 
strongly recommend.

The Right Hon. Earl of Mansfield’s Head Gardener says “ Carters Snowdrop Pea. A most excellent 
early pea, height about 4 feet, strong grower, very free bearer, pods medium size, well filled with good peas of excellent quality; 
can strongly recommend it.” — Mr. W. YVakd. 
The Right Hon. The Earl of Kimberley’s Head Gardener says A good early heavy cropper, 
as early as Early Morn , pods well filled, robust constitution.” — Mr. W. A. Thurston, Wilton Park, North Walsham, Norfolk. 
The Right Hon. Viscount Midleton’s Head Gardener says “ Snowdrop Pea. Height 4 feet. This 
is a very strong, robust variety for early work j the pods arc rather blunt, but are very closely packed, and is a good succession to 
Early Morn. The flavour is quite distinct, and is excellent quality for the general use of a large garden.” — Mr. Quainton, The 
Gardens, Peper Harrow Park, Godaiming. 
Ri£ht Hon. W. H. Long’s Head Gardener says : — “ l’ea Carters Snowdrop is a promising new first early,

4 feet in height.”— Mr. W. Strugnell, Rood Asluon, Trowbridge. 
The Hon. Vicary Gibbs’ Head Gardener says: — “ Snowdrop , one of the best, good shape pods, splendid 
variety for small gardens.”— Mr. Edwin Beckett, Aldenham House, Elstree, Herts.

pods, containing 9 peas in most pods ; this, 1 consider, fills a want in giving the true marrow flavour of the old Magnum Bonutn. 
It has a splendid constitution, and will certainly rank as one of the best early peas.” — Mr. W. Back, Glynde Place, Lewes, Sussex.
