SPENCER SWEET PEAS 



STANDARD VARIETIES AND NOVELTIES 



Sweet Peas, gay and fragrant, are the most universally popular annual 

 flowers cultivated. Inexpensive, easily and quickly grown from seed, thriving 

 in town or country gardens, supplying an abundance of continuous bloom 

 for months — an adornment to garden", house or corsage. Is it any wonder that 

 they are "everybody's flowers," and have been for generations? A few years 

 ago.-a paragon type appeared in the famous gardens of Earl Spencer, Northamp- 

 tonshire, England. This newcomer, extremely beautiful, the fairest-formed 

 and largest Sweet Pea ever grown, was named "Countess Spencer" and from 

 this has sprung-the glorified modern race of Giant Waved "Spencer" or "Or- 

 chid-flowered" Sweet Peas.

"The mixed Giant Spencer Sweet Pea seed we received from you last year was 

 great and cannot be beat. The plants began blooming early and bljomed' 

 until late fall, often 4 and 5 flowers on one stem. Too much cannot be said 

 of your Mixed Giant Spencer Sweet Pea seeds."
