Twelve Superb Newer Orchid-Flowered 



Sweet Peas 



We have selected the following out of the large number of new sorts of recent intro- 

 duction and consider them the finest collection of newer sorts ever brought together. 



4088 Crimson King. This grand novelty is the finest and 

 richest Crimson Sweet Pea ever introduced, of strong, 

 vigorous growth and bearing usually four extra large wavy 

 blossoms on long strong stems held well above the foliage so 

 that none of their beauty is lost. 



4094 Defiance. This grand American novelty is undoubtedly 

 the finest orange scarlet, a strong robust grower, flowers 

 of largest size, beautifully waved and absolutely sunproof. 



4103 Edna May Improved. Very large, beautifully formed 

 blossoms of the purest white on good stems. A good strong 

 grower and first-class in every way. 



4125 Hawlmark Salmon Pink. One of the most attractive 

 of the newer sorts, with flowers of largest size, of a brilliant 

 pink, richly shaded with salmon. A good grower. 



4126 Hawlmark Scarlet. Of the many scarlet sorts introduced 

 none equals this newcomer in brilliancy and purity of color, 

 which is a real vermilion; the size of the flowers and the free 

 growth of the plants leave nothing to be desired. 



4128 Heavenly Blue. For years hybridizers have endeavored 

 to produce a real Delphinium-blue Sweet Pea, and in Heaven- 

 ly Blue have at last succeeded beyond expectations; the 

 immense flowers, well placed on good strong stems are a pure 

 blue self; a novelty of more than usual merit. 15 cts. per 

 pkt.; $1.00 per oz.; S3.00 per i lb. 



4151 Mary Pickford. A wonderful new variety with nicely 

 waved petals of a dainty clear pink, faintly suffused salmon; 

 borne on four-flowered sprays on strong stems. Distinct and 

 pretty. IS cts. per pkt.; $1.00 per oz.; $3.00 peri lb. 



4188 Powerscourt. This recent introduction is considered by ex- 

 perts to be the finest pure lavender yet produced; the flowers of 

 gigantic size beautifully waved are produced very freely on vigor- 

 ous growing plants. 



4206 Splendour. Rich reddish maroon; very pleasing and distinct. 



4207 Sunset. Large, nicely frilled flowers of a beautiful tone of rich rose, 

 the base of petals suffused with glowing golden yeUow; quite distinct. 



4210 Tangerene Improved. A wonderful glowing tangerine orange 

 color, nicely waved flowers; very effective. 



4216 Valentine. A grand extra large flowering soft blush pink, of strong 

 free, vigorous growth.
