The Giant Waved Spencer ° r Qrchid Flowered Sweet Peas. 



STANDARD VARIETIES AND NOVELTIES. 



The characteristics of the Spencer Sweet Peas, grown under congenial conditions are: robust growth, the plants attaining a height of from 6 to 10 feet, re" 

 quiring for full development to be not less than 6 inches apart; a foot apart is better. The flowers are giants among Sweet Peas, measuring 2 to 2*4 inches across. 

 They are beautifully formed and daintily waved. Three and often four or five of these queenly blossoms are borne on long, strong stems. 



The world-wide popularity of the new race of Giant Waved Spencer Sweet Peas, their sportive tendency and the ease with which they are hybridized, has 

 resulted in the productoin of a legion of varieties by enthusiasts and growers both in Europe and America. In consequence numbers of varieties under different 

 names have proven to be identical and many others are closely similar. Therefore in our effort to simplify this confusion of names we made a thorough study and 

 comparison of hundreds of varieties grown at our trial grounds the past summer and after the name of such variety we offer is bracketed in italics the synonyms 

 and those "too near alike." 



To aid in selecting certain colors, we submit the following key: 

 Should the name of some old favorite be missing, by referring to its color class a similar and better variety may be selected.
