SWEET PEAS, SPENCER. HYBRIDS. 



Giant Orchid Flowering Type. 



In tbis we have a new class of Sweet Peas which has attracted much attention for the last 

 three or four years. Flowers of enormous size with both standards and wings waved and fluted, 

 whiie the flowers are loosely and gracefully set on the stems; plants healthy and vigorous, and 

 produce strong-stemmed flowers of great substance. The perfect-formed blossoms often measure 

 two inches across. Illustrated on front cover of catalogue. (I trust that all Sweet Pea lovers 

 will plant a few at least of the beautiful Speucer type..) 



Asta Ohn Spencer. 



This is the first lavender of the true Spencer type. The flowers are very large, waved and 

 fluted in standard, with large, thoroughly waved wings. The stems are long and sturdy, each 

 steam bears four flowers. The color throughout is a soft lavender, suffused with mauve. It 

 comes absolutely true. Pkt., 30 seeds, 10 cts.; 3 Pkts., 25 cts. ; oz., 80 cts. 



White Spencer. 



Flowers absolutely pure white, standards waved, crinkled and fluted; 3 to 4 blossoms to a 

 stem; stems 12 to 15 inches in length. Pkt., 50 seeds, 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts., V4 lb., 35 cts.; lb. $1. 



King Edward Spencer. 



This grand Novelty is the nearest approach in color to the popular King Edward VII in the 

 Spencer type. The enormous flowers are frilled, waved and crinkled. The unusually large wings 

 make the' flowers appear truly gigantic in size. The standard is deep rich carmine-scarlet of 

 glossy effect. The wings are also carmine scarlet and on the reverse side are of a deep rosy 

 carmine. The stems are twelve to fifteen inches long and frequently carry four fine blooms, 

 while the majority bear three flowers. The stems are thick and heavy, the vines vigorous and 

 thrifty. Pkt., 30* seeds, 10 cts.; 3 Pkts., 25 cts.; oz., 80 cts. 



Othello Spencer. 



This beautiful Sweet Pea of the true Spencer type will appeal to those having a preference 

 for the darker colors. The flowers come uniformly true to type, being beautifully waved or 

 crinkled both in standard and wings. The stems are thick and long and carry three or four fine 

 blooms of a rich deep maroon. Pkt., 30 seeds, 10 cts.; 3 Pkts., 25 cts.; oz., 80 cts. 



Menie Christie Spencer. 



This is a most beautiful aud distinct new variety of the Spencer type. Both the large 

 fluted standard and wavy wings are of the same color, a lovely ruby-rose with a slightly deeper 

 shade in the standard. The grand large flowers present a most striking color effect, with a won- 

 derful satiny sheen on the petals. Pkt., 50 seeds, 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts. 



Countess Spencer. True. 



The color is a soft rose-pink, which deepens at the outer edges and becomes still richer or 

 more heavily suffused in cool weather. In size, form, and coloring, Countess Spencer is simply 

 exquisite. The plant is a strong vigorous grower, and the large flowers are borne three and four 

 upon long stiff stems. Pkt., 40 seeds, 10 cts.; oz., 20 cts. 



SWEET PEAS, Countess Spencer Hybrids, The New Orchid-Flowering Sweet Pea— TTere we have 

 a new and distinct type and form of Sweet Peas. The flower stems are unusually long and the 

 flowers are so set on the steam that there is a graceful fluffiness to a bunch of them in distinct 

 contrast to the ordinary kinds of Sweet Peas. Mixed colors. 



Pkt., 100 seeds, 10 cts.; oz., 15c cts. 



NOTICE: One package each of the 7 Spencer Varieties 

 for 55 cents.

 April and every plant is growing. Now I will try a few roses, and am anticipating as good
