Hoiborn Standard; hearts large, solid, crisp, good flavour, with crumpled outer leaves 
tinged with brown. This variety stood the drought well without running to seed.” 
Carters’ Perpetual, — Award of Merit, Royal Horticultural Society, July i8th, 1902. 
This is a large handsome Cabbage Lettuce, equally suitable for forcing and for open 
ground. Its great attraction to us is its resistance to drought. It produces very fine heads 
of a lively green colour and retains its crisp and tender flavour to the last, its deeply crumpled 
leaves giving it great substance. 
Price 6d., is., and is. 6d. per packet; 2 S. 6d. per ounce. 
The Royal Horticulturai. Society, reporting its trials at the Experimental Grounds, 
says : — “ Carters’ Perpetual. — Foliage beautifully curled ; a fine stock.”
