Regal New^ Sweet Peas 



ir 



New Duplex Spencer 



The best of all Pink Sweet Peae tor bou- 

 quete. In color both the standard and wings 

 are a rich oream-pink, and practically all the 

 plants give ilowers with diouble or triple 

 Btandards. 



The beautiful lemon keel, in addition to the 

 double standard, materially enhances the 

 effectiveness of these flowers when bunched. 

 Of strong, vigorous growth, the vines bear the 

 grand flowers most profusely upon long, stiff 

 stems. Pkt. 15c. 



New Vermilion Brilliant 



The most brilliant, iridescent scarlet Spenc- 

 er yet produced. The flowere are of perfect 

 form. The bold, erect standard is well wav- 

 ed and fluteds of large size, beautifully 

 round«d and finishing well below the keel. 

 The wings are of the same intense pure soax- 



let as the standard, making a unifoirm self- 

 color throughout and absolutely sunproof. 

 Pkt. 15c. 



New Irish Belle or Dream 



The coloring is uniform in both standard 

 and wings, a lovely rich lilac, flushed with 

 pink, which gives a very distinct and soft 

 tone throughout the entire flower. Of finest 

 Spencer type, waved in both standard and 

 wings, the flowers are of large size and well 

 placed on long stems. Pkt. 15c. 



New Pearl Grey Spencer 



It is certainly a meet lovely and distinct 

 shade that might be described as a pearl or 

 dove-gray, siuffused with light rose, showing 

 a trifle more of the delicate rose shading in 

 the standard. The flowers, borne in clusters 

 of three and four, are of the largest size and 

 uniformly waved in both standard ajid wings. 

 Pkt. 15c.

A tree planted 

 by means of 



Stumping 

 Po'wdcrs 



not only thrives much 

 better than a tree that 

 is planted in another 

 way, but also will 

 produce larger crops. 

 You can plant double 

 the number in the 

 same time for a much 

 less expense.
