Burpee's New Sweet Pea 



MRS. KERR 



The Best Early-Flowering Salmon 



MRS. KERR created a sen- 

 sation when exhibited at 

 The Great International 

 Flower Show in New York, 

 March 1920, and again in March 

 1921. This magnificent nov- 

 elty has been hailed by experts 

 as being the greatest advance 

 in this type, its introduction be- 

 ing eagerly awaited by Sweet 

 Pea growers. 



MRS. KERR has all the'desir- 

 able qualities which go to make 

 up a perfect flower. In addi- 

 tion to its unique and dainty 

 color the plant is of most vigor- 

 ous habit and extremely florif- 

 erous. The flowers, of immense 

 size and exquisite shape, are a 

 most pleasing shade of rich sal- 

 mon overlaid or suffused with 

 orange. Under glass the color 

 is intensified and indescribably 

 beautiful; in artificial light it 

 is simply magnificent. The 

 great flowers are of substantial 

 texture, thus adding to their 

 unusual lasting qualities after 

 being cut. 



MRS. KERR produces flowers 

 which are bold in the extreme; 

 the standard is broad, deep and 

 charmingly waved; the wings 

 are well placed, as are also the 

 three or, more often, four flow- 

 ers on their long, stiff stems. 



It is impossible to fully describe 

 the great beauty of this lovely 

 flower, which we feel convinced 

 will become one of the most 

 popular of the early-flowering 

 type. All florists must have it 

 to be "up-to-date." Awarded 

 Certificate of Merit at the In- 

 ternational Flower Show, New 

 York, March 1920.
