The characteristics of the fe Sweet Peas, grown under congenial conditions, are: robust 
growth, the plants attaining a height of from 6 to 10 feet, requiring for full development to be from 
6 inches to a foot apart. The flowers are giants among Sweet Peas, measuring 2 to 2Y2 inches across. 
They are beautifully formed, with huge standards, open and upright, and immense wings gracefully 
poised. Three and often four of these queenly blossoms are borne on long, strong stems, 
rendering them uns ie as cut flowers for vases, bouquets and other decorations. Their long- 
continued profusion of bloom is phenomenal, but accounted for by the fact that a majority of the x 
flowers of true Spencers fall as they fade—before the seed pod is formed—as when Sweet Peas
