EARLY AND LONG-FLOWERING SPENCER SWEET PEAS 



This new type is receiving great attention at the hands of the leading hybridizers, and it will not be long before all colors will 

 be represented. They are already very popular and in great demand by commercial florists for forcing under glass for Winter and 

 early Spring blooming, but are just as valuable for the amateur for outdoor culture, coming into flower five or six weeks earlier than 

 the regular orchid- flowered type, and if the flowers are kept picked, continue to bloom over a period of nearly four months. We 

 offer the following carefully selected varieties: 



i 



4265 Early Blanche Ferry. Pink and white. 



4266 Early Venus. Delicate blush pink. 



4271 Early Mrs. Sim. A beautiful salmony-pink.

4273 Early President Wilson. Beautiful rosy crimson. 



4274 Early White Orchid. Pure white.

 rlowering variety. Flowers large and beautifully waved.
