TIE GIANT WAVED SPENCER SWEET PEAS. 



The Spencer Sweet Peas, grown under congenial conditions are of 

 robust growth, the plants attaining a height of from 6 to 10 feet, requiring to 

 be not less than 6 inches apart. The flowers are giants among Sweet Peas, 

 measuring 2 to 2} inches across. They are beautifully formed with huge 

 standards, open and upright and immense wings gracefully poised. Both stand- 

 ards and wings are daintily waved. Three and often four of these queenly 



blossoms are borne on long stems, rendering them unsurpassable as cut flowers 

 for vases, bouquets and other decorations. Their long-continued profusion 

 of bloom is phenomenal, but accounted for by the fact that a majority of 

 the flowers of true Spencers fall as they fade — for the seed pod is formed — 

 thus continuing the succession of bloom — for as all know when Sweet Peas set 

 pods, the flowering diminishes.
