900 Edward VII. Carters ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 3 ft.). — 
In the trials of the Royal Horticultural Society we were granted 
an Award of Merit for this superb early Marrow Pea. It is a 
first-class representative of the forward section of Marrowfats, 
but has Ne Plus Ultra shaped pods of a beautiful lustrous green, 
filled with fine large sweet-eating peas.

Giant Lightning, Carters, and Giant Blue Express, 
Carters.— I.arge-podded early round varieties. It is now many 
years since our House first introduced Carters Lightning (white 
round) and Carters Express (blue round), two Peas which soon 
became popular as the earliest of the white and blue round 
section. After several years’ patient labour we introduced the 
magnificent Peas. Giant Lightning and Giant Express. There 
is no doubt that these types displace the smaller podded varieties, 
as, in addition to the increased size of pod, the haulm is 
stronger, the cropping properties are much heavier, and the 
flavour is superior to the older varieties. In large establish- 
ments where Peas are required very early, these grand Giant 
introductions will be much appreciated, as it is well known that 
the round Peas are hardier and generally can be sown earlier 
than the wrinkled Marrowfat varieties.

Weeks. Its deep-green pods are long and curved, and of most 
excellent flavour ; an excellent forcing Pea.

SECOND EARLY 
924 Daisy, Carters (Wrinkled. Ht. 15 in.)— The most famous 
second early Marrowfat in cultivation. This grand dwarf 
Marrowfat Pea has been before the public for some years, and 
still stands at the head, as confirmed by the great independent 
trial of Peas conducted by the Royal Horticultural Society. 
Their experiment comprised 
over 80 varieties, and Carters 
Daisy gained the First Class 
Certificate given by the Society. 
Carters Daisy Pea is an early 
maincrop. growing about li ft. 
high. The haulm is very 
robust, and the crop of giant, well -filled pods of good colour is 
enormous. Atl excellent forcing Pea. — "C arter Daisy Pea. — 
So many satisfactory accounts have been given in these pages of 
this variety of Pea that it may seem superfluous to again write 
its praise, but having grown it for several seasons I can confi- 
dently recommend it as one of the best second early dwarf 
varieties at the present time. It is of robust growth, reaching 
nearly 3 ft. in height last year, but in ordinary summers the 
plants do not get much above 2 ft., and are literally crowded with 
fine pods nearly 6 in. long, each containing from eight to ten fine 
peas of excellent flavour. I have been much impressed by the 
length of time the pods will hang without getting dry, having 
saved the crop for seed. The pods are usually borne in pairs, 
and the raisers are certainly to be congratulated upon giving 
Mayflower, Carters ( Wrinkled 
Marrowfat. Ht. li ft.). — A superb 
dwarf first early Marrowfat Pea. A 
cross between Daisy and William 
Hurst. This is a fine variety, with long pointed pods twice the 
size of William Hurst find much more freely produced ; being 
one of the most prolific dwarf peas grown. The bine is, robust, 
possessing the same healthy character as its most famous parent 
Daisy, with pods of similar character to that variety. Seed 
wrinkled. Most suitable for forcing. 
"This is the best Early Pea we have grown. We sowed it on 
the same day and on the same border with four other varieties, 
and it was the best in every way. It is a grand Pea, and should 
be grown by all lovers of a good dwarf Pea, especially those 
with small gardens.” — Mr. W. I„. Bastin, Gardener to the Rt. 
Hon. Lord Farington. Per i-pint. 1/9; per pint. 3/-

899 Early Morn-f Express Snowdrop, Carters ( Wrinkled 
v/ ' Marrowfat . Ht. 4 ft.).— Award of 
Carters Snowdrop Merit. R.H.S. 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.

us such a good Pea. I advise those who have not yet grown this 
Pea to procure a quart of seeds from the raisers and sow as soon 
as the state of the soil will allow, and I will vouch for it they 
will not be disappointed.” — Mr. J. Maynic, in the Gardeners'

Dawn, Carters (Wrinkled 
Marrowfat, Ht. 4i ft.). — 
Awarded Royal Horticultural 
Society's Certificate. A very 
sturdy and hardy second early, 
introduced for the purpose of 
supplanting such old and 
worn-out types as Champion of England and King of the 
Marrows, & c.. which are continually asked for because of their 
hardy nature. It is not a show variety, but for utility and heavy 
cropping it is a valuable addition ; pods medium colour, about 
same size as Ne Plus Ultra. 
" A Pea of great promise, which reached 5 ft. in growth. A 
good cropper, the pods well filled with Peas of first-rate flavour.”
