GRANDIFLORA and UNWIN SWEET PEAS 



The overshadowing size and beauty of the Giant Waved Spencer Sweet

BEAUTY OR "GIANT NICE" STOCKS 



The plants are of fine symmetrical habit, bushy, and in flower stand about 154 to 2 feet in 

 height. The side branches each carry a tall strong spike well furnished with large and 

 very double clove-scented flowers. They do not flower as quickly from seed sowing as 

 Ten-Week Stocks, the "Beauties" requiring from 12 to 15 weeks, but after they com- 

 mence blooming their long-continued profusion is phenomenal. Seeds started early in the 

 spring and the seedlings transplanted in the garden in May will begin flowering in July 

 and continue to bloom until frozen. Late sown plants if carefully lifted and potted in 

 the fall will continue to flower in window garden or conservatory during the winter. As 

 cut flowers "Beauty" Stocks are unsurpassable.
