THE "SPENCER" TYPE OF SWEET PEAS 



Burpee's Unequalled List for 1913 — Arranged Alphabetically. 

 Choicest Re-selected Stocks Grown on "Floradale Farm." 



Spencer Sweet Peas are a great specialty with us ! We were the first to grow the seed in America — 

 the stock having been entrusted to us before introduction, even in England, of the origiual Countess 

 Spender. We have grown "the original Beauty" and its many "sportive" children with painstaking care 

 each season since. There are but few other growers, — either in England or America, — who can supply an 

 equal assortment of True Re-selected "Spencers" that are uniformly of such choice quality. Seedsmen 

 and planters generally can see how superior our stocks now are by the trials at Fordhook Farms 

 next .luue or .July, while those who may be in (California are invited also to inspect the growing crops 

 :it our Floradale Farm in the beautiful Lompoc Valley. Every planter's garden, however, is really 

 a trial ground and we shall be quite content if any "Doubting Thomas" will send us only a portion of 

 liis order and note the tiilTerence in character of flowers produced!

BURPEE'S BLUE LIST FOR 1913 



The most complete catalog published for MARKET GARDENERS. TRACKERS and FLORISTS. For the planter who 

 "knows" it contains complete lists of all that is best in vegetables :n]d flowers, while the grower who is uncertain as to the 

 best varieties suited for his purpose may be guided by the linH's-eye ® placed after what is known to be best. In addition 

 full descriptions are given many new and most valuable varieties. 



BITRPEE'S BLUE LIST FOB 1913 contains 148 pages with hundreds of half-tone and engraved illustrations. Within the 

 pages of this catalog we have condensed an experience of thirty five years both in handling and the actual growing of seeds. 



If you garden for profit (that is, sell your products in the market) you are entitled to a copy of this complete and 

 easily understood catalog, but if you are a private planter please do not ask for a copy, as we must protect the Market 

 flardener. Trucker and Florist.
