CURRIE BROTHERS COMPANY, MILWAUKEE, WIS.

 crossing 'with the finest of the large-flowering- types. The 

 colors range mostly through the lighter shades of pink, rose 

 and buff. Per pkt. 5c; per oz. 10c; % lb. 20c; 1 lb. 60c. 



DOUBLE SWEET PEAS. 



Double Sweet Peas have divided or multiplied standards, 

 usually two, but sometimes three and four standards, each 

 as large as the ordinary standard on the single sorts. Under 

 very favorable conditions this doubling is almost constant, but 

 there is always a tendency to run back to single flowers.

SWEET PEAS In Separate Shades of Color. 



Many of our customers prefer to grow Sweet Peas in 

 patches of color, instead of a mixture of all colors. Grown in 

 this manner they can be picked and more easily arranged 

 into bouquets with effective color blendings. We offer shades 

 selected only from our finest named sorts. - 

 Pink Shades. Lavender Shades. 



Red and Scarlet Shades. Blue and Heliotrope Shades. 



Striped Sorts. White Sorts. 



Pink and White. White with Puk and Lilae 



Edges.

 One oz. each of the 8 sorts separate for 50c. 



SWEET PEAS. 



BEAUTIFUL, FRAGRANT, FASHIONABLE. 



Sowing should be made in well-prepared ground as early 

 as it can be worked. The plants should not, however, be 

 grown two successive seasons on the same ground. It will be 

 found a most excellent plan to make a trench about 6 inches 

 deep, in which plant the Seeds, covering at first to a depth 

 of 2 inches; gradually draw in the soil as they advance in 

 growth; this will greatly aid the plants to withstand our hot 

 summers. Never allow them to run to Seed, as once in the 

 Seed pod they are finished for the season. The more you cut, 

 the greater the quantity of blooms they will produce.

 fully developed and form compact bushes with no tendency 

 to climb like the older sorts. As the plant begins to flower 

 it spreads more or less and should be tied to a support. Bush
