DREER'S SUPERB 



Orchid-flowered Sweet Peas 



The best of the old-fashioned or grandiflora varieties are now quite 

 overshadowed by this wonderful type, which are quite distinct, having 

 large, round open flowers of extraordinarj' size, usually measuring two 

 inches across, with wavy standards and wide-spreading wings, a very 

 large percentage bearing four of these immense blossoms to the stem, 

 which is long and strong, making them of exceptional value for cutting. 

 All the sorts offered below have been thoroughly tested and are just 

 as easy to grow as the grandiflora varieties. For list of the latest 

 introducdons, see Novelties and Specialties, pages 52 to 62.
