It has been only a few years since the first of the Spencer Sweet Peas was intro- 

 duced to American gardeners, but they have in that short time so completely 

 overshadowed the old-fashioned or Grandiflora varieties that the latter are almost 

 forgotten. The flowers of the Spencer or Orchid-Flowered type are of extraordinary 

 size, with beautifully waved standards and wide-spreading wings, round and open, 

 often measuring 2 inches or more across. A large percentage bear four of these im- 

 mense blossoms to the stem, and the stems are long and strong, making them of 

 exceptional value for cutting. 



In exquisite form and range of elegant colors, there are no flowers to compare 

 with Sweet Peas. We offer the cream of the Spencer sorts that have been tested 

 and found to be of true merit and distinct in color.
