HENDERSON’S SUPERIOR 
Double-Flowering W ° 
DOUBLE SWEET PEAS are of incomparable beauty. The plants are of extremely robust 
growth, producing a lavish profusion of richly fragrant flowers; the flowers are extra large, 
frequently measuring over two inches across. They have from two to three standards and fre- 
quently three wings. All of these petals composing the flower are beautifully incurved and 
daintily frilled. The effect of the extra number of petals is to throw tinted and varying shad- 
ows into the depths of the flower, intensifying the coloring and bringing the high lights into 
strong relief. 
The flowers of these do not all come double, but usually 20 to 40 per cent. of double 
blossoms are produced. Sometimes the flowers on a stem will all come double and sometimes 
all single, but generally doubles and singles are borne about half-and-half on each stem. In 
some uncongenial situations they have proved very inconstant, producing no double flowers 
at all, but in such cases they make up for the deficiency in doubles by producing in greatest 
profusion large beautiful single flowers. (See cut.)

New Bush Sweet Peas. 
The Bush Sweet Pea grows in perfect 
bush form, as shown in the illustration. It 
requires no trellis like the tall Sweet Peas; 
neither does it hug the ground, Verbena- 
like, as does the Cupid race. Anaverage 
bush grows 16 to 18 inches high, by 
from 12 to 14 inches wide. Allthetiow- 
ers are borne on top of theplant, and 
the proper way to treat this new 
type will be to plant the seed in a 
row, to make a neat even hedve, 
when no supports whatever will 
be required. Grownas separate, 
individual plants, theslightsup- 
port of a light stick should be 
furnished. Theflowers,bothin 
form and coloring, are of good 
size and of perfect hoodedform; 
plant hardy and vigorous in 
constitution. (See cut.)

Compact dwarf plants not over 6 or 7 inches high, covering a circumference of about 18 inches, 
hugging the ground, with no tendency to either climb or trail. Theinnumerable shortbranches form a 
perfect tuft of green foliage, which soon becomes studded with flowers of good form and substance, and 
nearly as large as those of the climbing Sweet Peas. For edgings, low beds and for pot culture they are 
unique and wonderfully pretty. (See cut.)
