New Yellow Sweet Pea. 



A Wonderful and 

 Beautiful Everblooming 

 Variety. 



This is undoubtedly one of the most beautiful, in- 

 teresting and easily prown plants in existence; low 

 growing, profuselj' branching plant, every branch 

 ending in racemes six to ten inches long, of beautiful 

 large, sweet pea-like flowers. These flowers are of 

 a thick substance, fragrant and of u golden yellow 

 color (except the keel iu the center, which looks like 

 brown velvet) and are followed by clusters of short, 

 smooth pods. 1 can recommend this most magnificent 

 variety, knowing that it will give purchasers the 

 greatest satisfaction. It blooms the first year from 

 seed, and in the garden may be treated as an annual. 

 Tliis is certainly one of the finest novelties ever intro- 

 duced. A plant in bloom reminds one of a shower of 

 gold. Pkt. 10c, 3 pkts. 25c.

BURPEE'S EARLIEST OF ALL— Every sweet pea fancier will be 

 anxious to have this distinct new strain, when we state that it 

 is identical with Extra Early Blanche Ferry, except that it is 

 more dwarf in growth and comes into bloom at least ten days 

 earlier. Pkt. 10c, oz. 40c.

 Vl^L'VL^L^t flowers are of the same open, expanded form, of 

 good substance and large size, the vines average three flowers on 

 a stem ; the standard is light pinkish-lavender, wings pure laven- 

 der. Pkt. 5c, oz. 10c. 



GOLDEN GATE — Its t)eculiar form is unlike any other sweet pea. 

 The novel feature is seen in the long, pointed wings, which stand 

 upright (like ears of a rabbit), nearly parallel with the 

 standard, suggesting the name Golden Gate. The numerous 

 strong stems bear three and four flowers each. The standard 

 is soft pinkish-mauve; wings a lighter mauve and Itrvender.

To those who are quite familiar with the 

 popular Ramona, we can best describe Lottie 

 Hutchins by saying that it Vs daintily flaked 

 with pink in the same manner, but on a cream 

 ground instead of white, making a richer and even more lovely 

 effect. The flowers are of well expanded grandiflora type, lai-ge 

 in size and finely formed, borne on heavy stems. Pkt. 5c, oz. 30c. 



STELLA MORSE— The blossom 

 opens with a most fascin- 

 ating shade of deep cream, 

 which becomes a little 

 lighter as the flower grows 

 older. About the third day 

 it is a delicate primrose, 

 with a faint rose- pink on 

 the edge. It has the most 

 perfect form, being of the 

 largest grandiflora hooded 

 type, and grows on long 

 stems, with three or four 

 flowers to the stem. It is a 

 thrifty, vigorous grower, 

 and a profuse bloomer. No 

 one has seen this new sweet 

 pea without being in love 

 with it — its pleasing grace- 

 fulness and soft delicate 

 colorina- being unrivalled. 

 Give this variety a trial.

 bluish white. P}jt.5c,oz.l0c.
