HENRY A. DREER. PHILADELPHIA, PA.— FLOWER SEEDS 



SPRAY OF ORCHID-FLOWERED SWEKT PKAS 



Dreer's Fine Sweet Peas 



We aim to confine our list of Sweet Peas to the very best vari- 

 eties and only those which can be used by florists for cuttinu. 



Spencer or Orchid-flowered Sorts. 



This type is distineuisbed from the standard or srrandiflora sorts 

 by the extraordinary size of their flowers and by the standard 

 being crinkled and wavy. They usually bear four blossoms on a 

 stem, and are as easy to grow as the commonest sorts. Owing to 

 their being shy seeders they will always be higher in price than 

 the grandifloras, but a fair crop the past season enables us to 

 offer them at prices much lower than ever before.
