HENDERSON'S of the SWEET PEAS 



^are offered on next page, No. 40^ - 



Where there is also given a list of "discarded" varieties with the variety 

 we recommend as a substitute. 



THERE are too many so-called varieties of Sweet Peas offered to the public. Many of them are 

 alike, or so nearly so that experts can scarcely distinguish them apart. The list of over one 

 hundred varieties is being added to at the rate of a dozen or more annually, and we feel that it is 

 time to commence culling out the older varieties that have been improved upon, the newer sorts 

 that have reverted back or are not improvements, and the sorts that have been offered under 

 different names by different firms, which we have proved at our trial grounds to be the same thing. 

 There are, of course, many excellent sorts in our discarded list, but a counter part or an improve- 

 ment has in all cases been retained ; for instance, in the lavender section, Princess May, Countess 

 Radnor and Celestial are all practically the same thing. We retained the latter because it has been 

 trued up better to the pure lavender color. All other sections have had the same consideration. 



An ounce of Sweet Peas contains abont joo seeds, enough to sow a single row 25 feel long 

 Our packets of all (excepting the novelties) are liberal, containing about yj seeas, enough to sow 

 a single row 6 feet long.
