 MORNING GLOR\ 



Sweet Peas still hold a ]ilace in tlie first rank among flowering 

 plants. But few plants are grown more easily, and grown in masses 

 of separate colors or in mixture tlieir beauty and fragrance cannot 

 be surpassed. We offer in our list an assortment of the choicest 

 varieties. 



Culture. — Sweet Peas should be sown in drills as early as possible 

 in spring, in rich, friable soil. Prepare the bed thoroughly, working 

 in a quantity of well-rotted manure, if it can be done, making a fur- 

 row four to six inches deep. In this sow the seed and cover two 

 inches deep. As soon as the plants begin to show through, fill in 

 the furrow. This will secure a deep planting witliont the bad effect 

 of deep covering of the seed "iit first, and so enable the plant to 

 bloom continuously through the heat of summer. As fast as the 

 flowers come into "full bloom or fade they should be cut off, for if 

 tlie pods are allowed to form the plants will stop blooming.
