CARTERS MICHAELMAS PEA (see Photograph on opposite P a f./)- This 7 ca ouite overstep 0 
boundary hitherto set by the times and seasons, and is absolutely distinct. Late variates d Fe P 
fame have been late mainly by reason of their straw, character. The cons t, tut, on of Ca ten mhaelma^ 
is not run through in straw, but we have fixed a dwarf bushy growth of 2 * feet, which holds back its natural 
force and throws it into the pods ; consequently, while being very prolific, its colour n i pod is of the dee P^ 
green, and its pods are large and well filled. We have proved this Pea to possess a reserve of strength which 
will enable it to resist the drought and the mildew to a degree hitherto unknown in a I ea. 
The Royal Horticultural Society, in their report of trials at Wisley, say “ Carters Michaelmas. 
Height, 3 i feet ; haulm and pods very dark green ; very sturdy ; pods in pairs ; heavy crop. 
Price 2S. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart, 6d. and is. per packet.
