Twelve Superb Newer Orchid-Flowered 



Sweet Peas 



We have selected the following out of the large number of new sorts of recent intro- 

 duction and consider them the finest collection of newer sorts ever brought together. 

 4088 Crimson King. This grand variety is the finest and 



richest Crimson Sweet Pea ever introduced, of strong, 



vigorous growth and bearing usually four extra large wavy 



blossoms on long strong stems held well above the 



foliage so that none of their beauty is lost. 



4094 Defiance. This grand American novelty is undoubtedly 

 the finest orange scarlet, a strong robust grower, flowers 

 of largest size, beautifully waved and absolutely sunproof. 



4126 Hawlmark Scarlet. Of the many scarlet sorts introduce 

 none equals this newcomer in brilliancy and purity of color, 

 which is a real vermilion; the size of the flowers and the free 

 growth of the plants leave nothing to be desired. 



4128 Heavenly Blue. For years hybridizers have endeavored 

 to produce a real Delphinium-blue Sweet Pea, and in Heaven- 

 ly Blue have at last succeeded beyond expectations; the 

 immense flowers, well placed on good strong stems are a pure 

 blue self; a novelty of more than usual merit. 



4151 Mary Pickford. A wonderful new variety with nicely 



waved petals of a dain'ty clear pink, faintly suffused salmon 



borne on four-flowered sprays on strong stems. Distinct and 



pretty. 

 4155 Miss California. This is considered one of the best of 



the many pink varieties. The color is a distinct shade of 



salmon pink and shows up well when cut. A strong grower. 



4188 Powerscourt. This recent introduction is considered by 

 experts to be the finest pure lavender yet produced; the 

 flowers of gigantic size beautifully waved are produced very 

 freely on vigorous growing plants. 



4204 Snowball. A wonderful pure white. Flowers of largest size on 

 long strong stems, unusually fragrant. A vigorous grower. 10 cts. 

 per pkt.; 75 cts. per oz.; $2.50 per I lb. 



4206 Splendour. Rich reddish maroon; very pleasing and distinct. 



4207 Sunset. Large, nicely frilled flowers of a beautiful tone of rich rose 

 the base of petals suffused with glowing golden yellow; quite distinct.

 color, nicely waved flowers; very effective.

 free, vigorous growth.
