You will find that our list of Sweet Peas brings to you a careful 
selection of the very finest varieties of today. All are large-flowered 
and free-blooming. Sow as early in the spring as the ground can 
be prepared in rich, well-limed, deeply-worked soil with good 
drainage. Cover the seeds about 2 inches deep with fine soil and 
supply support to the vines before they grow too large. Keep 
well watered during dry periods. One ounce of seed will plant 
a row about 15 feet long.
