FRENCH PEAS. 
945 Giant Edible Podded, Carters — Our friends in France 
have assiduously developed the Edible Podded Pea section, and 
have thus obtained a delicious vegetable not sufficiently well 
known in this country. The variety we now offer grows about 
5 ft. high, with very broad fleshy pods. 
Per 4-pint, 1/- ; per pint, 1/9 ; per quart. 3/3 
944 Petit Pois, Carters (Delicatesse).— This Pea has gained 
a great renown among the Continental connoisseurs, who regard 
it as a delicacy. It is a second early wrinkled, with haulm about 
3 ft. ; very prolific ; long curved pods hanging in pairs. 
Per 4-pint, 1 1- ; per pint, 1/9 ; per quart, 3/3 
MAINCROP GARDEN PEAS.

of splendid quality ; large deep-green pods. 
Per 4-pint. 1/3 ; per pint, 2/3 ; per quart, 4/- 
964 Best of All (Wrinkled Marrowfat, lit. 3 ft.). — Splendid 
cropper. Per 4-pint, 1/2 ; per pint, 2/- ; per quart, 3/6 
961 Buttercup, Carters (Round Blue. lit. 14 to 2 ft.).— A hardy 
type of Daisy Pea. May be described as an early maincrop; 
fine robust habit, long well-filled pods, produced in pairs, aver- 
aging ten peas in each ; remarkably free bearing. The large 
deep-green seed, which is almost round, retains the sweet 
marrowfat flavour when cooked. This fine Pea was much 
admired in our Gold Medal Exhibit at Leamington. 1913. and 
also at Bristol Royal Show, where we were awarded a Gold Medal 
and Silver Cup. Per 4-pint. 1/6 ; per pint, 2/6 ; per quart, 4/6 
962 Commonwealth, Carters (Wrinkled Marrowfat. lit. 
2 ft.).— We have a most perfect re-selected stock of this popular 
maincrop Pea. It is a strong grower and a prolific bearer of 
large exhibition pods of a fine deep colour, besides being a first- 
class table Pea. Strongly recommended. (See Photograph.) 
Per 4-pint, 1/6; per pint, 2/6; per quart. 4/6 
966 Doctor McLean, Re-selected (Wrinkled Marrowfat. lit. 
3 ft.).— A fine Marrow Pea. 
Per 4-pint, 1/-; per pint. 1/9; per quart, 3/3 
955 Duke of Albany, Carters Re-selected (Wrinkled 
Marrowfat. lit. 5 ft.).— A great advance on the original stock, 
the pods being straighter and longer, and should be grown 
by all who know the original 
variety. The Royal Horticultural 
Society, reporting its trials at 
Wisley, says: — “Cartkrs Duke 
of Albany Re-self.ctkd.— Duke 
of Albany received an A. M.. July 5th, 1901. This is a fine true 
stock of this now well-known excellent variety.” 
Per 4-pint, 1/6; per pint, 2/6; per quart. 4/6 
968 Duke of Albany ( Wrinkled Marrowfat. lit. 5 ft.).— Original 
stock. Per 4-pint, 1 12 ; per pint. 21- ; per quart, 3/6 
953 Exhibition, Carters (Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 5 ft.) — Seed 
large, green, and wrinkled. A magnificent Pea, the result of a 
selection from Carters Model Telephone, the selection having 
been made for the purpose of obtaining an Exhibition Pea 
possessing all the good points of that celebrated variety, but 
bearing even a larger and richer-coloured pod. We claim that 
in every respect we have been successful. This superb variety 
bears immense rich deep-green pods, perfect in shape, and well 
filled with large green peas of excellent flavour. 64 First Prizes 
reported during 1919. (See Photograph.) 
Per 4-pint, 1/6 ; per pint, 2/6 ; per quart, 4/6 
Harvestman, Carters 
(Wrinkled Marrowfat. III. 
5 ft.). — This grand Pea. which 
is a cross between Express 
and Duke of Albany (Seedling 
No. 214), possesses all the 
qualities of Duke of Albany, 
but the pods are distinct in 
shape, more regular in growth, 
not quite so tall, and altogether superior. Its appearance and 
cropping qualities are far ahead of either Duke of Albany or 
Duchess, or any of a similar class, and we are confident that 
there is a great future before it. For market or garden it is a 
most profitable Pea. ( See Photograph.) 
Per 4-pint, 1/6 ; per pint, 2/6 ; per quart, 4/6 
Improved Queen, Carters 
(Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 
3 ft.). — This selection from the 
original stock is larger and 
longer in pod, and much 
deeper in colour. The habit is very much more compact. 
Per 4-l>int, 1/3; per pint, 2/3; per quart, 4 /- 
International, Carters 
(Wrinkled Marrowfat. Ht. 5 
to 6 ft.). — This magnificent Pea 
is the result of a cross between 
our well-known Early Morn 
and Duke of Albany. It is 
quite distinct, both in shape 
of pod and habit ; the pods are 
of a rich deep green, containing 
eleven peas of excellent size and flavour. This is undoubtedly 
the largest curved pod Marrowfat Pea at present offered to the 
public ; it is quickly becoming the most famous early maincrop. 
Pods of this variety (under Seedling No. 211) were exhibited at 
the Royal Agricultural Society's Show at Newcastle, and at the 
Royal Horticultural Society’s Show at Holland House, and 
attracted much favourable attention. Included in the large Gold 
Medal, Exhibit, Shrewsbury, 1912. 
“ I grew this variety last year and was greatly impressed with 
it as a first-rate cropping sort, and it has fully maintained this 
season the high opinion I formed of it then.” — Mr. G. Taylor, 
Head Gardener to Sir I. F. Ramsden. Bart. 
Seed insufficient for distribution this year. 
958 Model Telegraph, Carters ( Round Seeded. lit. 5 ft.).— A 
selection from our original Telegraph, which is well known. 
Very valuable as a table Pea. on account of the size and fine dark 
colour of the pods. The seed is round and of a deep-green colour, 
which is retained when cooked.
