NEW SWEET PEAS. 



Watkins & Simpson, the London sieeds- 

 men, who make a specialty of sweet 

 peas, have a set of four new sorts to 

 send out the coming season. All are 

 descended from Gladys Unwin, which has 

 given such universal satisfaction, and 

 are said to be as fixed in character as 

 is that variety. The novelties are named 

 and described as follows: 

 • Nora Unwin takes its place easily in 

 the front rank of whites, far outdistanc- 

 ing Dorothy Eckford, which was hitherto 

 considered the finest white. This variety 

 has the same bold, wavy standard as 

 Gladys Unwin. 



Mrs. Alfred Watkins is a superb pink 

 of Gladys Unwin type, the same pale pin'k 

 color as the old Princess Beatrice, which 

 was thought so much of when it came 

 out many years ago; but the flowers of 

 Mrs. Alfred Watkins are so much larger, 

 and have . the beautiful, bold, wavy 

 standard of Gladys Unwin. It will be 

 one of the best market varieties for cut 

 bloom. 



Frank Dolby is a lovely pale blue, 

 the same shade as Lady Grisel Hamil- 

 ton but much larger, and, being also 

 bred from Gladys Unwin, it has the 

 same bold, wavy standard. It is the 

 largest and finest pale blue sweet pea. 



E. J. Castle is a magnificent addition 

 to the Gladys Unwin class, with the same 

 large flowers and bold, wavy standard 

 of its parent. It is somewhat lighter 

 than John Ingman, but with rather more 

 salmon shading in the standard, and has 

 a lovely effect. 



These varieties each produce 70 to 75 

 per cent of four blooms to a stalk.
