GIANT SPENCER SWEET PEAS 



These new Sweet Peas are distinguished for their gigantic size; usually measuring 2 inches across; the bold, 

 erect standards are uniformly waved, crimpled and fluted in exquisite fashion; the charming blendings of har- 

 monious colors; the exceedingly long flower stems, which make them unexcelled for cutting; the great profusion 

 of flowers and the large number of flowers on the stem, usually from three to four. 



Cultural Note. — The seed should be sown in new ground as early as it can be worked in the Spring to enable 

 the vines to make a good, strong growth before the hot weather sets in. White-seeded sorts should not be sown 

 until the ground is comparatively dry and warm. Fall plantings give the best bloom; plant in October and No- 

 vember in trenches about 6 inches deep and cover to a depth of 3 inches, still allowing the center of the trench to 

 remain at least 3 inches below the level of the ground and they will become well rooted and grow off at the first 

 opening of Spring and yield an abundance of bloom earlier and for a longer season than if planted in the Spring. 

 Use plenty of well-rotted manure, and don't gather the blooms grudgingly — the more you pick them the longer 

 and better they will bloom.
