Carters’ Defiance Forcing. 
A very useful variety for frame or pot culture. In perfection during the 
summer—a season when a scarcity exists in vegetables of this description. 
A very distinct and valuable Cauliflower, much earlier than any other variety, 
producing beautiful white heads about the size of a crickot hall. Very dwarf 
and compact habit. 
In sealed packets, 2s. per packet. 
“MARKET GARDEN NOTES. —We planted three kinds side by 
side — these were Carters’ Extra Early Defiance, Extra Early, and Early 
Snowball — and in all points of merit they stand as I have placed them here. 
Carters’ variety came in first, and its heads were the most compact of the lot, as 
well as the largest.”— 7 'he Garden.

Carters’ Mont Blanc. 
Magnificent snow-white heads, well protected by the leaves ; one of 
the best for soils of a heavy or retentive nature. 
In sealed packets, Is. 6d. per packet. 
“ Carters’ Mont Blanc Cauliflower.— This has the merit of being distinct. 
The plants are strikingly compact in habit, and the heads are large. It is a summer 
sort, and those who grow half-a-dozen varieties of Cauliflower and do not include this 
may rest assured that they are without one good one at least. Some Cauliflowers 
only succeed in certain soils, but I have noticed that this one does well in all, and its 
good constitution and robust style of growth indicates it as a variety that will prove 
remunerative .”—-Journal of Horticulture. 
“ I grew some of the largest and handsomest Cauliflowers last season from your 
seed that I ever grew. I have grown them for a great many years, and have taken a 
large number of prizes.”—W. S. 
Cai tei S New Eai ly Empei 01 ._ A very quick maturing Cauliflower for outdoor work. It produces immense heads of 
a beautiful white and compact texture very early in the Autumn, in advance of those now cultivated. It will be found to supersede existing varieties 
in following closely the forcing and frame types. 
In sealed packets, price 2s. 6d. per packet.
