SWEET PEAS. 



Can some brother florist tell us some- 

 thing about Earliest of All sweet pea? 

 We have never grown it before and 

 planted it quite heavily this fall. Some 

 of the vines are six feet high and are 

 coming into bloom, but the trouble is the 

 stems are only three to four inches long. 

 Would they do better if we feed them 

 or will they come better later on? We 

 thought of sowing seed of Blanche Ferry 

 among the vines, so that if the Earliest 

 of All did not improve we could cut 

 them out and have the Blanche Ferry 

 to take their place. Can it be done that 

 way? The temperature is 48 to 50 

 degrees at night, 60 to 65 degrees in the 

 day time. A. B. C. 



This is the chief trouble with this 

 pea and it rarely, even under the best 

 conditions, reaches more than six inches 

 in stem. However, after the first blooms 

 are cut the later blooms reach out a 

 little more. Feeding liquid is essential 

 to good quality in bloom and will likely 

 also help the stems. I have had best 

 success by raising the temperature to 54 

 degrees at night after the buds begin 

 to appear. 



It is not good policy to sow Blanche 

 Ferry among the older crop. Sow them 

 in small pota and transplant when readv. 

 after preparing the bench or border, and 

 success is assured. R. 



SOILS. 



I send five samples of soil. Please 

 tell me through the Review what you 

 think of each for growing roses and car- 

 nations. Samples Nos. 1 and 5 are from 

 beds of Bride, one sample from where the 

 plants all took sick and died, the other 

 from where they are doing better, but are 

 rather weak in growth and stem. Sample 

 No. 2 is from a Beauty bed. I also
