Christmas=f lowering Sweet Peas 



Introductions from 1907 



Mrs. Alex. Wallace. Lavender. This va- 

 riety is without doubt the best in a lavender; 

 every florist has been pleased with it, and the 

 flowers keep for nearly one week without 

 losing their fine color. 



Mrs. Wm. Sim. Pleasing salmon pink; very 

 popular with the retail florist; a good seller. 



Mra. F. J. Dolansky. Daybreak pink. 

 While not as large as the others, the color 

 takes well. 



Le Marqula. This is the same color as 

 Princess of Wales violet: h(is very large 

 flowers, and sells well where a dark blue 

 Sweet Pea is wanted.

 ten years in commerce and improves yearly.

 SOo; 2 oz., 50c; ^ lb., 76c; 1 lb., $8.00. 



'Watchnnsr. Pure white; black-seeded;

flowers.

Wm. J. Stewart. Blue self. 



All these varieties produce steadily im- 

 mense quantities of flowers throughout the 

 winter, with from two to five flowers on 

 stems up to 25 inches in length, all growing 

 over 7 feet high and, when well grown, reach- 

 ing the height of 12 feet.

Novelties for 1908 



New crop ready in September 

 Mrs. W. W, Smalley. A pleasing satin 

 pink; flowers are very extended, while the 

 stem is not extremely long. Behind every 

 leaf comes a good, salable flower, with a 

 good color from early in fall until late in 

 spring. This will be found a very good com- 

 mercial variety in light pink. 



Mrs. Geo. I.ewis. White-seeded. Pure 

 white. Very large orchid or wavy flower. I 

 think it will outclass Florence Denzer in a 

 few years. 



Oreenbrook. White, standard, slightly 

 touched with lavender. Very large orchid 

 flowering. 



Miss Helen M. Oonld. White, open 

 flower; standard, lilac, marbled. 



Mrs. Hannan. Deep rose-pink of a very 

 pleasing shade; medium flower.

 100 seeds, S5c; 1 oz., $1.00; 





None genuine unless this Trade Mark ia stamped 

 on the packet. If some one tries to sell you 

 so-calltd Winter Sweet Peas without this Trade 

 Mark, send back his lemon.

 in cash or by New York draft. 



Foreign customers will please send remit- 

 tance either by International Postal Money 

 Order, or by draft on a New York bank. 



All orders are filled strictly in rotation, and

 ing the largest acreage ever planted was 

 put down last year, and owing to stock 

 being kept back previously, owing to 

 oversupply, the larger sizes will be in 

 larger percentage. Longiflorum gigan- 

 teum, the true black stemmed variety, 

 will be easier to obtain and the quantity 

 on offer will be much larger, although
