Carters Quite Content (Maincrop Marrowfat. Height, y to 6 feet).— This 
grand Pea, which has caused such a stir in the Horticultural world, is the 
outcome of a cross between Alderman and Edwin Beckett. In general 
character it resembles the former, but the pods are considerably larger than 
either parent. In our own trials it has amply demonstrated its wonderful 
superiority, and when exhibited in the open class at Shrewsbury, it 
easily secured the First Prize, and was pronounced by leading experts 
to be without doubt the finest Pea ever seen. It is exceedingly prolific ( see 
Photograph opposite), and the pods hang mostly in pairs. 
Price, 5s. 6d. per quart ; 3s. per pint; Is. 9d. per half-pint ; Is. per packet. 
We would respectfully draw our customers’ attention to the 
following: — “The true and original Pea Quite Content, as sent out by Messrs. 
James Carter & Co., is a maincrop variety, height 6 feet, foliage and pod deep green, 
pod 7 inches to inches long, hanging mostly in pairs, and is quite distinct from 
all other Peas. We are requested to make this statement, as we are given to 
understand that a Pea which has not all the claims of Carters Quite Content has 
been widely distributed this season by others, either by accident or design, thereby 
causing much correspondence and annoyance to the growers and Messrs. Carter alike. 
Messrs. Carters Quite Content was distributed this season in their sealed packets, 
and has each year been carefully re-selected.” — The Garden. 
His Grace The Duke of Buccleuch’s Head Gardener says : — “Quite 
Content is all you claim for it, and was the most popular Exhibition Pea this last 
season.” — Mr. Whytock, The Gardens, Dalkeith Palace. 
The Right Hon. The Earl of Onslow’s Head Gardener says : — 
“The Pea Quite Content is excellent in every way.” — Mr. II. W. Blake, The 
Gardens, Clandon Park, Guildford.
