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 bloom a week or two ahead of the summer- 
flowering varieties if planted at the same time early in the spring.
