PEA. DANIELS' DWARF PROLIFIC. 
NEW PEA— 
DANIELS’ DWARF PROLIFIC. 
A second early dwarf wrinkled marrow, growing 
about It ft. high; it is enormously prolific, bearing 
a profusion of dark green, slightly curved pods four 
inches long, woll filled with eight to nine peas of 
excellent flavour. It is a very compact grower, and 
will be an acquisition to all gardens where space is 
limited, on account of the little room it occupies as 
compared with its heavy cropping qualities. We have 
had this Pea under trial for several years, and con- 
sider it one of the best of the dwarf marrows, and 
have no hesitation in recommending it to our customers.
