Dreer's Twelve "Incomparable" 



ORCHID-FLOWERED SWEET PEAS 



Of the hundreds of Orchid-flowered or Spencer Sweet Peas introduced in the last 

 few years, we offer this season thirty-seven of what we consider the very choicest and 

 most distinct varieties, and while we fully recommend all of the sorts described and 

 offered on page 112, as well as the newer kinds on the opposite 

 page, yet most of our customers only wish a limited number of 

 sorts, but want these to be the very best, and it is with this in 

 mind that we offer this ^collection of Twelve 

 Incomparable sores described below, each one 

 of which is a leader in its respective color, and 

 which is sure to give entire satisfaction. 



4074 Blanche Ferry Spencer. This is an 

 extra fine, large wavy-flowered stock of 

 the popular pink and whice Blanche Ferry. 

 A good strong grower and very free-flower- 

 ing. 



4095 Dobbie's Cream. An extra selected 

 strain and the finest primrose-yellow yet 

 introduced; splendid in every way with 

 very large, wavy flowers.

 vigorous grower, bearing its giant flowers on long, stroni

4114 Fiery Cross. The sensational fiery-red or perhaps 

 brilliant orange cerise would be a closer description.

Spencer, a lively rose pink, but larger in size, a

this beautiful variety always attracts great attention.
