PARSLEY.

handsome variety ; both useful and ornamental. 
819 Carters Curled.— Compact and hardy ; beautifully curled. 
815 Carters Emerald Green. — Award of Merit, R.H.S. This 
excellent stock of Parsley is becoming very popular, and was 
picked out by the Committee of the Royal Horticultural Society 
as being worthy of an Award of Merit. The colour is a very 
rich deep green; habit taller and more branching than our 
celebrated Champion Moss Curled ; it is also very quick in 
developing, and should prove of great value to market growers.

818 Carters Fern-leaved Parsley.— Exquisitely perfect in form 
and colour; quite fern-like, and highly ornamental; for garnish- 
ing purposes it is ideal. 
817 Carters Perpetual Parsley.— This splendid variety was 
introduced by us some years ago and has attained a large sale on 
account of its excellent quality and its characteristic of being 
remarkably slow to run to seed. It is rather taller and more 
branching in growth than our Crested Bouquet.

PARSNIP. 
The Cultivation of Parsnip.— Sow the seed early in March as soon as the season will permit. The ground should be well manured and 
deeply trenched, the drills about lj ft. apart and the plants thinned out the same distance apart. The quality of the roots is improved by 
allowing them to winter in the ground for spring use. 1 oz. of seed will plant 100 ft. of drill ; 5 lb. to the acre. 
830 Carters Maltese .— A superb giant Parsnip for exhibition or 
table use. We hold records of 578 First Prizes having been taken 
during the past few seasons for this fine Parsnip, which was also 
included in the First and Champion Prize Exhibit of Vegetables. 
Shrewsbury, 1912, and also the I«arge Gold Medal Exhibit at the 
same show. We are confident in stating that this highly-selected 
strain cannot be surpassed, either for size or flavour; the roots, 
which attain to a very large size, being quite as tender and sweet 
flavoured as most varieties which do not reach one-half the size. 
832 Carters Holborn Marrow .— A sweet delicate-fleshed variety. 
A truly refined Parsnip. When lifted it leaves the ground clean, 
smooth, and well shaped. It is not so large in growth as our 
Maltese, but its flavour is unusually marrow-like and delicate. 
Our picture very inadequately depict its merits. The Royal 
Horticultural Society, reporting its trials at the Experimental 
Grounds, says:—" Roots thick, handsome, and not too large, but 
just the size and shape a Parsnip should be.” 
833 Hollow Crown.— An old favourite. 
831 Carters Long: Parsnip.— Fine variety, of splendid flavour. 
835 Th© Student.— Extremely delicate flavour.
