Dreer's Reliable FLOWER SEEDS 



SWEET PEAS 



Early-Flowering 

 Orchid or Spencer Type 



For the Greenhouse and Early 

 Outdoor Beds 



These early or winter flowering Sweet Peas have beautiful, large, 

 well-formed blooms carried in threes or fours on elegant long stems. 

 They were primarily developed for florists to be grown in the 

 greenhouse during the winter where the summer flowering varieties 

 have not proved satisfactory. They have proved of exceptional 

 value in southern states and other sub-tropical countries where 

 they will bloom by Christmas if sown in September. In northern 

 climates they will bl.iom a week or two ahead of the summer 

 flowering varieties if planted at the same time early in the spring.
