DREER’S 
Select Sweet Peas. 
There are now in commerce nearly 200 varieties of Sweet 
Peas, with new sorts:beingadded every,year. Many of this vast 
number are either small-flowering, of weakly growth or lacking 
in some characteristic.which a first-class variety should have. 
Every year our list is carefully revised, 
with a view to keeping it strictly up-to-date ; 
and while it seems hard to dispense with 
some of the old favorites, yet it must be done 
to keep up with the march of progress, 
Every variety in our list is entitled toa 
place in the front rank of Sweet Peas; but 
as most amateurs only wish a limited number 
of sorts, we have made up a collection com- 
prising 21 of the very finest and most dis- 
tinct which we offer as our “ Incomparable ’” 
collection and which are described on page 
66, and designated in the list below by an 
asterisk (*).
