New Early Flowering Spencer Sweet Pea " V ARRAWA" 



This new comer from Australia has proven its adaptability to American 

 conditions, growing as luxuriantly- and producing its long stemmed, giant 

 waved flowers as quickly and in the same continuous profusion as if growing 

 in the warm climate of the Antipodes. In our trials, it commenced flowering 

 freely two weeks before other large waved Sweet Peas and three to four weeks 

 earlier than some varieties, all given the same cultural treatment and "Yarrawa" 

 continued in flower, holding its large size and phenomenal floriferousness for 

 weeks after all other Sweet Peas had passed their best. The flowers are large 

 of round waved Spencer form and colored bright rosepink with lighter pink 

 wings. The exquisite coloring is most effective either by daylight or artificial 

 light and, moreover, the flowers are deliciously fragrant. Per packet of 25 seeds 

 15c; peroz., $1.00.
