24 WM. ELLIOTT & SONS’ GENERAL CATALOGUE FOR 1895. 
STOCKS, INTERMEDIATE. 
The Intermediate varieties are prized on account of 
their flowering late in the autumn; also as pot plants 
for early spring blooming, for which purpose they 
should be sown in July or August, and kept from 
hard frost during winter. Plantstreated in this way, 
and planted out in May, make a rich display during 
the early summer months.

SWEET PEAS. 
(LATHYRUS ODORATUS.) 
Of these delightfully fragrant flowers it is unnecessary 
to say much, their universal favoritism being well 
established. When cut for filling vases, the bloom 
will last for days, and the distinct colors are very 
beautiful. The seed should be sown as early as the 
ground can be worked in the spring, to enable the 
vines to get a good strong growth before the warm 
weather comes. Hardy annuals, 6 feet.
