Sweet Pea evolution is constantly producing additions to the glorified race of "Spencers 
collection we include a number of the most recent. 
which have superseded the older types, and in this 
The characteristics of the Spencer Sweet Peas, grown under congenial conditiens 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 toot apart. The flowers are giants among Sweet Peas, measuring 2 to 2Vz inches across. 
They are beautifully formed, with huge standards, open and upright, and immense wings gracefully poised. Both standards and wings are daintily 
waved, the undulations reflecting high lights an deccsting shadows in the depths, thus showing a varied harmony of tones which greatly enhances 
the coloring. Three and often four or these queenly blossoms are borne on long strong stems rendering them unsurpassable as cut flowers for vases, 
bouquets and other decorations. Their long-continued profusion of bloom is phenomenal but accounted for bv the fact that a majority of the 
flowers of true Spencers fall as they fade — before the seed pod is formed as when Sweet Peas set pods, the flowering diminishes. 
Condensed cultural instructions for garden culture under both northern and southern conditions and for winter flowering under glass are given in
