MIXTURES OF SWEET PEAS 



Most people obtain more satisfaction from planting Sweet Peas in mixture than from growing named sorts, but to 

 be successful it is necessary that the seed be of the best quality obtainable. Often what is offered as mixed seed is 

 stock harvested from plants that have come up as vohmteers on ground where Sweet Peas have been grown before, or a 

 lot of seed which has been grown, saved or handled so carelessly that it cannot be sold as any distinct variety. The use 

 of such seeds will not give satisfactory results. However, where the seed is grown from the very best stock that can be 

 produced, is mixed in most carefully studied proportions and then the seeds of desirable but shy seeding sorts are added, 

 there is nothing superior for use in the home garden.
