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 extra- 

 ordinary 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, mak- 

 ing them of exceptional value for cutting. All the sorts offered
