Carters’ Early Favourite (See Illuslratiori). 
—A selection from Dickson’s Favourite, but very superior to that 
well-known variety in length of pod, extra earliness, productive¬ 
ness, and quality for table. The pods are quite distinct in shape 
from any other Pea in cultivation ... ... per pint, Is. 6d. 4 f ee l 2 6 
Carters’ Little Wonder (Re-selected). — 
We introduced this valuable early wrinkled Pea some years 
since, and offer now a choice selected stock. It is a wrinkled 
Marrow as early as Advancer, and very superior in length 
and breadth of pods, productiveness, and flavour .. ... ... 2 feet 2 0 
Carters’ Pride of the Market • —A fine main crop 
blue marrowfat Pea, belonging to the same family from which our Stratagem was 
selected. Its merits were recognised by the Royal Horticultural Society, who 
awarded it the highest honours. It is a very heavy cropper, yielding fine long 
pods, well filled with large green peas. Being a strong grower it requires to 
be thinly sown. Height, 2-i feet. 
In sealed packets, price Is. 3d. per pint, 2s. per quart. 
Carters’ Seedling. —A superior main crop Marrow Pea, the 
result of two distinct crossings, its parents being the well-known and valuable 
Peas, Stratagem, Queen, and Autocrat. It somewhat resembles our peerless 
Stratagem in height and general character. The pods are of a rich green colour 
and well filled with large Peas. Carters’ Seedling is likely to become a popular 
exhibition Pea. Height, 3 feet. 
“ I exhibited Carters’ Seedling Pea six times, and obtained five First Prizes and 
one second. Some of the pods were seven inches long.” — J. H. Barton. 
In sealed packets, price 2s. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart. 
Carters’ Majestic- 
-A splendid Mid-season Marrowfat Pea, 
valuable alike for the table and exhibition. It is exceedingly productive, 
the extra large highly-coloured pods containing from eight to eleven fine peas 
possessing a sweet and dainty flavour. Height, 3 feet. 
In sealed packets, price 2s. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart.

FRENCH PEAS. 
CARTERS’ DELICATESSE (Petit PoisI _This Pea has gained a great 
renown among the continental connoisseurs who regard it as a delicacy for 
conserving as Petit Pois, and the choicest brand is grown exclusively by some 
houses from this stock. It is a'second early wrinkled, with haulm about 3 feet. 
An enormous cropper. 
Price Is. 3d. per pint, 2s. per quart. 
CARTERS’ GIANT EDIBLE PODDED PEA.— Whilst such a large share 
of popularity has been accorded the ordinary shelling Peas in this country, our 
friends on the Continent have assiduously developed the Edible Podded Pea 
section, and have thus obtained a delicious vegetable but little known here. The 
pods will snap readily but are generally cooked whole, and served to table usually 
with some plain sauce. 
The variety we now offer grows about 5 leet high. 
Price Is. 6d. per pint, 2s. 6d. per quart.
