Sweet Peas. 



(LATHY RUS ODORATUS. 



These exceedingly beautiful and fragrant hardy 

 annuals are now most popular. 

 Directions for Culture. — Sweet Peas succeed best in 

 a deep, rich soil. The most approved method of cultivation 

 is to sow in a trench five or six inches deep, covering them at 

 first with only one inch of soil ; then as the plants grow up, 

 fill in the earth about them one inch at a time. After the 

 plants are well grown up, they should be watered copiously, 

 and bone meal worked into the soil about the roots is rec- 

 ommended. Proper trellis or other support should be provided. 

 The first sowing of Sweet Peas may be made very early in the spring, as soon as the frost is out of the ground, 

 )r a succession, some should be sown every few weeks afterwards. For fall flowering, they may be sown as 

 te as July. Then again, they may be sown late in the fall for very early blooming the following spring, but 

 that case a dry situation is preferable, and they should be sown four or five inches deep, and not in the 

 snch method.
