 plants are grown strong and luxuriant they usually produce 20 to 40 per cent, of double blossoms.

SWEET PEAS, Best New Mixed — Owing to a special demand for all the new and finer varieties, I have 

 selected all the large flowering and most distinct sorts especially for those that can afford pay 

 for the scarce and rarer varities that heretofore have been too expensive to include in a mixture, 

 comprising in all some 25 or 30 named varieties. This I call my Best Mixed, and I can particularly 

 recommend it as extra choice and fine. Pkt., 100 seeds. Sets.; oz., 10 cts.; 1-4 lb., 25 cts.; 1 lb., 90 cts.

SWEET PEAS, Coantess Spencer Hybrids, The New Orchid- Flowering Sweet Pea — Here we have a new^ and 

 distinct type and form of Sweet Peas. Ihe flower stems are unusually long and the flowers are so 

 set on the stem that there is a graceful fluffiness to a bunch of them in distinct contrast to the 

 ordinary kinds of Sweet Peas. Mixed colors only. Pkt., 100 seeds, 10 cts..; oz., 15 cts. 



NEW DWARF PINK CUPID SWEET PEA— Bears generally three and sometimes four flowers to a stem. 

 The flowers are identical with the tall growing 5^a«c/ie jPf^rr?/, and are fully equal in size. The 

 standard is a bright rose pink, while the winc-s are pure white and light pink. 

 Pkt, 100 seeds, 5 cts.; oz., 10 cts. 



NEW DWARF WHITE CUPID SWEET P£4— Grows but 5 inches hip-h and blooms so freely for months 

 that it appears a perfect mass of white — the leaves being quite hidden. The flowers, of fine form 

 and large size, are of the most perfect white; and the plants remain in full bloom two months 

 longer than any other Sweet Pea. Pkt., 100 seeds, 5 cts.; oz., 10 cts.

I wish you might have seen the flowers we had last year from your seed^. We had Asters 

 that many thought must be Chrysanthtmums; but the fim stjloivcrs were ourPituvia, Grandijlora. 

 People from aJl around came to see them, and inquire where we got the seed; of course we were 

 glad to give them, your name. We had some flowers red and pink inside, shadiig to a very light 

 green outside, and some such a dark pvrple it would not be wrong to call tin m black. 



Hoping you will have good success in the future, I remain. Your well wisher.

 Miss Lippincott: — The Sweet Peas and seeds I got from you did better than a/.// / ever plant- 

 ed; they were lovely. The Clematis did fine and had fourteen blossoms the first year. 



Yours truly, Gertrude Manderfield.
