Carters’ Anticipation.^ „, to .„ op Wri „ Hrf 
introduced by us in 1S87, and now exceedingly popular. We claim 
for “Anticipation” (which is the result of a cross between Ne Plus Ultra 
and an Early Wrinkled Dwarf Pea) complete and distinct individuality. In 
habit and size, and shape of pod, for its enormous productiveness, and for its 
delicious flavour, it remains unique. “ Anticipation ” grows to a height of about 
2I feet, and sown at the usual season it comes into bearing early in Tuly. The 
foliage is of a medium shade of colour, the habit of the plant being very robust, 
with immense straight pods, and the seed is very distinct ; they are also of an 
exquisite flavour when cooked. 
In sealed packets, price 2s. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart. 
CARTERS’, 237, 238, & 97. HIGH HOLBORN, LONDON.—1900 
Carters’ “ Model Telegraph ” „, 
for size, the seed being saved from the largest pods only. The selection 
is from the original Telegraph , which is well-known. It Was OUF 
privilege to introduce this famous Main-crop Marrow 
Pea in the year 1877, and we held the opinion at the time, 
and which was clearly expressed in our announcement, that it would 
prove the forerunner of a new race, and this is exactly what has 
happened. Indeed, the Gardeners' Chronicle in an article on Peas recently, 
says“ Telegraph may be fairly called the forerunner of nearly all 
the giant-podded section now so popular,” and not only does it hold 
a leading place in gardens but we also find that to-day it is probably 
grown to a much larger extent than any other Pea by the market gardeners, 
who are the first to find out the merits of a new vegetable, as their very 
livelihood depends upon their crops. It is also valuable as an exhibition 
Pea, on account of the size and fine colour of the pods. The seed is round 
and of a deep green colour, which they retain when cooked ; the flavour is 
also of the sweetest. Height. 5 feet. 
In sealed packets, price 2s. per pint, 3s. 6d. per quart.
